Brice Marden has created intense drawings, prints, lithographs and etchings since the 1960s. He commands these techniques masterfully, and invests more and more time and creative energy in them.
There may not be one painting by Marden that is not supplemented or anticipated by sketches or even complete serials of printed works. Thus Marden regards the drawing as equal to the painting, with the print as the link between the two techniques.
This catalogue accomplishes to trace the evolution from the first artistic thought and early preliminary sketches to the trial of motif and subject in several prints and finally to the finished painting. It is the first catalogue and the first retrospective to document the artist‘s work process over the course of the last 40 years.
Included are about 120 prints (with a first-time documentation of a portfolio bought by the museum Wiesbaden in 2004), as well as 20 drawings and 10 paintings.
