Below is the full list of Pace publications that will be on view at Printed Matter’s Virtual Art Book Fair. PACE PUBLISHING Recent Books Sam Gilliam: Existed Existing (2020) Texts by Courtney J. Martin, Fred Moten, Hans Ulrich Obrist Design by Tomo Makiura & Mine Suda; Hardcover; 157 pp; 10 ¼ x 10 ¼”; $ 65 Published for Sam Gilliam’s recent exhibition, Existed Existing, this book features new paintings, washi papers, and sculptural works by the artist. Courtney J. Martin discusses Gilliam’s approach to exhibition-making and the evolution of his practice in her essay “Imagine the Show on the First Day.” In “The Circle With a Whole in the Middle,” FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Left to right: Jo Baer: Up Close in the Land of the Giants (2020); Kiki Smith: New Work (1995); Steinberg: Drawing into Being (1999) poet, cultural theorist, and MacArthur Fellow Fred Moten illuminates Gilliam’s work in dialogue with the aesthetic considerations of abstraction and Blackness. An interview by Hans Ulrich Obrist explores themes including family, music, peers, and poetry. Arlene Shechet: Skirts (2020) Texts by Rachel Silveri, Deborah Solomon, Michaëla Mohrmann Design by Other Means; Clothbound hardcover; 252 pp; 12 x 7.5”; $ 65 Made for Arlene Shechet’s solo exhibition Skirts, this richly illustrated catalogue features color reproductions, including details and installation views, of recent assemblages by the New York-based sculptor. Shechet discusses her practice in two new interviews alongside an essay by scholar Rachel Silveri, who explores the lively work in conversation with and as a feminist intervention in the history of modern art. The considered approach to design, including the use of a variety of paper types, nods to Shechet’s own engagement with material. Jo Baer: Up Close in the Land of the Giants (2020) Texts by Jo Baer, Andria Hickey Design by Mine Suda; Hardcover; 136 pp; 10 ¾ x 8 ¼”; $ 55 Expanding on the themes introduced in Jo Baer’s 2013 catalogue In the Land of the Giants—published for the dual exhibition at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam and the Ludwig Museum Cologne—Up Close in the Land of the Giants features extended texts, found and drawn images, and paintings by the artist. This new publication provides deep insight into Baer’s research-based approach of locating source imagery in the Irish landscape, which has inspired and informed her visual lexicon for two decades. Loie Hollowell: Plumb Line (2019) Texts by Emma Enderby, Iris Cushing, Elissa Auther Design by Michael Aberman; Clothbound softcover; 198 pp; 11 x 9”; $ 55 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Made on the occasion of a solo exhibition of work by New York-based painter Loie Hollowell, Plumb Line features reproductions and installation images of nine large-scale paintings that explore the artist’s relationship with the maternal body. Poems by Iris Cushing run throughout the book and die-cut and colored pages evoke the biomorphic paintings’ breaching of boundaries between the illusory and the real. An art historical essay by Emma Enderby, a conversation between the artist and Elissa Auther, and Hollowell’s own sketchbook pages provide indispensable context. Calder: Small Sphere and Heavy Sphere (2019) Texts by Alexander S. C. Rower, Susan Braeuer Dam, Arnauld Pierre, Noam M. Elcott Design by Tomo Makiura; Hardcover; 152 pp; 10 ¾ x 9 ¼”; $ 70 Titled after Alexander Calder’s first hanging mobile and made to accompany a sweeping exhibition of more than 70 works, this catalogue charts the sculptor’s conception of the groundbreaking form of the mobile. Reproductions, installation images, and archival images—including a suite of historic photographs taken by Marc Vaux in the 1930s and drawings of animals in motion by Calder—are contextualized through scholarly contributions by Alexander S. C. Rower, Susan Braeuer Dam, Arnauld Pierre, and Noam M. Elcott. David Hockney: La Grande Cour Normandy (2019) Text by David Hockney Design by David Hockney and Gregory Evans; Hardcover; 86 pp; 11 ¼ x 10 3/8”; $ 50 This exhibition catalogue features the first body of work that British artist David Hockney made at his Normandy studio, depicting the arrival of spring.

The book includes a text on the series by the artist in English and French. Richard Tuttle: A Drawing Book.... (2019) Design by Richard Tuttle; Clothbound hardcover; 22 pp; 10 ¼ x 7 ¼”; $ 40 This clothbound artist’s book features drawings by Richard Tuttle, who since the 1960s has produced lyrical and intimate work across media as varied as sculpture, painting, poetry, drawing, assemblage, and bookmaking. In A Drawing Book...., Tuttle investigates line, color, texture, and volume in delicate and intuitive markings that spring from the inside margin, accompanied by a short poem. Agnes Martin/Navajo Blankets (2019) Text by Nancy Princenthal & Anne Lane Hedlund Design by Mine Suda; Clothbound hardcover; 80 pp; 10 ¾ x 9 ¾”; $ 60 With reproductions and installation views of the 2018 bicoastal exhibition, this catalogue brings together the meditative paintings of Agnes Martin, who spent much of her life in New Mexico, and 19th-century Navajo textiles, FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE which also channel ideals of harmony and balance through abstraction. A conversation between Martin’s biographer Nancy Princenthal and cultural anthropologist Anne Lane Hedlund considers the connection and elucidates shared sensibilities. Adam Pendleton: Our Ideas (2018) Texts by Adam Pendleton, Suzanne Hudson, Alec Mapes-Frances, Yvonne Rainer, Adrienne Edwards Design by Marc Hollenstein; Clothbound hardcover; 166 pp; 10 3/4 x 8 ¾”; $ 40 Published for Adam Pendleton’s 2018 solo show, this book showcases work across media by the New York-based artist, including Black Dada drawings and paintings; the fragmented Untitled (A Victim of American Democracy) paintings; multilayered Mylar transparencies; and stills and a transcript from a single-channel video featuring choreographer Yvonne Rainer.

I investigate Agnes Martin’s methods, which are available to those looking carefully at her paintings, focusing on the late 1950s and early 60s. Her constructions of materials found near her New York studio have received little critical attention in existing writing, despite their pivotal role in the development of her grid paintings. I re-enacted some of her methods, and adopted some of the elements that I observed in her artworks from this period, in order to better understand the relationship between found objects in these works and the marks and lines within later paintings and drawings. I focused on the particular quality of attention Martin devoted to marks, materials and surfaces, both in her work and in her working environment; this involved analysing and attempting to follow her ‘contemplative’ approach (see Chapter 2) A practical analysis extended the understanding of Martin’s methods and the effects of local North American influences, and resulted in a new body of layered and two-sided artworks, described throughout this thesis.

  • Exhibition: Agnes Martin on View: April 24–September 11, 2016 Location: BCAM, Level 3
    Exhibition: Agnes Martin On View: April 24–September 11, 2016 Location: BCAM, Level 3 Image captions on page 5 (Los Angeles—March 8, 2016) The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) presents Agnes Martin, the first and most comprehensive retrospective of the artist’s work since 1992. This extensive exhibition covers the full breadth of Martin’s practice, revealing her early and little-known experiments with different media, and tracing the development of her work from biomorphic abstraction to the mesmerizing grids and striped canvases that became her hallmark. A seminal artist of the 20th century and a pioneer of abstraction, Martin viewed her work as a pursuit of perfection, striving to instill every painting with “beauty, innocence, and happiness.” Her style, though restrained, underscored her deep conviction in the emotive and expressive power of art. Martin’s development of the grid marked a crossroads in the history of abstract painting. The artist established a geometric and spatial language often by gently inscribing penciled lines over subtle fields of wash and color—a practice that she would persist in refining and reinterpreting over ensuing decades. A contemporary of the abstract expressionists, Martin was one of the few prominent female artists in the prevailingly masculine art world of the late 1950s and 1960s. LACMA’s presentation of Agnes Martin is curated by Michael Govan, CEO and Wallis Annenberg Director of LACMA, with Jennifer King, associate curator, director’s office, and features nearly 100 objects including oil and acrylic paintings, multimedia pieces, watercolors and drawings, a print portfolio, and two sculptural works.
