Throughout the 1960s, Martin developed her signature format: six by six foot painted canvases, covered from edge to edge with meticulously penciled grids and finished with a thin layer of gesso.
Though she often showed with other New York abstractionists, Martin’s focused pursuit charted new terrain that lay outside of both the broad gestural vocabulary of Abstract Expressionism and the systematic repetitions of Minimalism. Rather, her practice was tethered to spirituality and drew from a mix of Zen Buddhist and American Transcendentalist ideas.
For Martin, painting was “a world without objects, without interruption… or obstacle. It is to accept the necessity of … going into a field of vision as you would cross an empty beach to look at the ocean.”

    Hi Corey I cant find anyinfo on why or the reasoning for a dyptich or triptych. Can you explain or give references to read on? What about if theres space between the panels or not and whether the surface design is continuous? Help

    I am absolutely loving this series! Such a fantastic teacher, I love how he integrates information about the artist and their working practice seamlessly with the work itself. I have always had difficulty appreciating more abstract art at the level I would like to, but watching the process that goes into creating them has made me feel so much more involved in the works in a way that documentaries etc have never allowed me.

    my favorite part is when he said if you find yourself getting too fussy about the little things to just stop, because that's the beauty of it. I loved that. I throw away so much art cause it's not exactly perfect and the way I want it to be, and honestly if I would just push through and keep painting the it would probably all work out in the end.

    Whether or not you enjoy this kind of artwork, this series is incredible. My girlfriend and I often go to the MoMA in SF and talk about the pieces. This series has helped me greatly appreciate the process of these works as well as the physicality and philosophy behind their design. Even beyond that the instruction is amazing - it touches on theory, materials, history and philosophy without dragging on or being pretentious. As an engineer who has taken no art classes or ever felt like they should paint - these are making me want to paint - a lot!

    Where are triangles in nature? In mountains, in the shape of ears of various animals, in the beaks of birds, the empty space between 2 legs and the ground when moving. The strength of a triangle is not consciously shown to us but enters our subconscious as all images of perfection does.
