Looking closely at six series of drawings that span nearly the entirety of Marden's ongoing career, this luxuriously illustrated presentation features works spanning from 1975 to 2019, including the never-before-published <i>Letters from Borobudur </i>of 2010. In addition to rarely seen early monochrome works, three groups of 1979-80s drawings--<i>Mirabelle Addenda</i>, <i>Shell</i>, and <i>Cold Mountain Studies</i>--foreshadow the artist's mature linear work and highlight the process of invention and permutation that occurs as Marden thinks and draws on paper. A concise overview of Marden's drawing practice investigates the geographies and methods that inform his work, while an artist interview offers insight into how Marden uses the medium as a means of exploring the creation of spaces on drawing surfaces.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Kelly Montana </b>is assistant curator at the Menil Drawing Institute. <b>Josef Helfenstein</b> is director at the Kunstmuseum Basel.
