One of the most singular voices in the history of American Abstraction, Agnes Martin’s work remains illusive, beguiling and at times baffling. Martin asks us to step away from the bustle and stress of everyday life, and enter her world. A world, where she searches for beauty through lines, bands, pale palettes and grids. These are paintings that whisper from the walls, gently drawing us towards a certain stillness, a quietness that can be hard to find in our modern lives. Join Nick and I as we curate a playlist to accompany today’s enigmatic painting.
