<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>A beautifully illustrated volume that explores Brice Marden's history of painting on marble fragments sourced from quarries in Hydra, Greece.</b> <p/>In 1981, while summering on the island of Hydra, Greece, Brice Marden began painting on small fragments of marble from local quarries. These compositions marked a transitional moment in his career. Marden has continued to make marble paintings since that time, describing his strategy as "taking an accident and turning it into a form." <p/>This volume commemorates an exhibition of the artist's marble paintings presented at Gagosian, <i>Athens</i>, in 2020--his first solo exhibition in Greece in four decades. To complement the marbles, Marden selected a small group of ink drawings on paper and a six-panel painting, <i>Free Painting 3</i> (2017). Together with full views and details of individual works, this beautifully illustrated volume features installation photography and a new essay by Dimitrios Antonitsis, in English and Greek, that considers the marble paintings in the context of the artist's long connection to Hydra.<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Dimitrios Antonitsis </b>is an artist and the founder and curator of Hydra School Projects, a nonprofit foundation in Hydra, Greece, that organizes exhibitions and an artist residency program.
