This book is the first to catalogue in one volume all of abstract artist Brice Marden's work From the 1990s, and includes, unlike other publications on the artist, marvelous large details of the pieces, which give the reader a better perspective of what the works are like in actual size. Marden's alternately fluid and tensile abstractions and patterned motifs represent a lifetime's worth of thought about art. The book is published to accompany a major travelling exhibition on Marden's work organized by the Dallas Museum of Art.

Brice Marden's art is deceptively austere. Within the seemingly narrow color range of his paintings and drawings, he orchestrates remarkable thematic variations of color, light, scale and mood. His monochromatic gray palette of the 1960s, expressing a "vocabulary of ambiguities,'' gave way to limpid motions and a neoclassical exploration of color-and-light relationships. Kertess, a curator at New York City's Whitney Museum, links the elemental grace of Marden's more recent works to this American artist's summer sojourns on Hydra, a Greek island in the Aegean Sea. In Marden's organic, cellular structures, Kertess sees the influence of Chinese calligraphy and Marden's trips to the Far East. Illustrated with 158 plates (133 in color), this handsome monograph follows Marden's metamorphosis from a pure abstractionist to an artist seeking to objectify the spiritual, as he does in his Annunciation series and in the Elements, which are symbolic paintings rooted in medieval alchemy.

The catalogue for the exhibition of the great American painter at the Istituto Nazionale della Grafica in Rome in December 2001, with text by the curator Mario Codognato. The 70 works selected by the famously reclusive artist provide a unique insight into his collected oeuvre. Marden's dedication to paint as a medium marks him as a singular figure in contemporary art; his remarkable and intrinsic use of colour makes him a pioneer among artists who seek other mediums to express themselves. His belief in the use of paint in the modern era has made him a major figure in the American minimalist art movement, with retrospectives in New York, Paris and London. His work is recognised in permanent collections worldwide.

Crown Point Press in San Francisco, founded in 1962 by Kathan Brown, is a world-renowned center of contemporary printmaking. It has published work by such major figures as Richard Diebenkorn, Helen Frankenthaler, Sol LeWitt, and Wayne Thiebaud, while bringing to attention prints by many younger artists, including April Gornik, Anish Kapoor, Eric Fischl, and Francesco Clemente. Crown Point Press is known for presenting social and political issues in a range of printmaking media, from hard- and soft-ground etching to drypoint, aquatint, and mezzotint. The Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco acquired the Crown Point Press archive in 1991. This collection of nearly 800 works contains one impression of every print the Press has ever produced. Also included are over 2000 working proofs and preparatory sketches. Now, in collaboration with the National Gallery of Art, the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco has organized an exhibition of these distinctive prints. Chronicling Crown Point Press's dedication to artistic quality and commitment to innovation in printmaking technique and subject matter, this book also presents Kathan Brown's notable contributions in transforming the printmaking landscape of the twentieth century. Published in association with The Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco
