The Mark Paintings 1977-79. Obsessive and repetitive markings over a strict grid structure characterize the early paintings by these artist. Her purity of form has intellectual rigor but evokes the tenacity and sensitivity of the human hand.
Obsessive and repetitive markings over a strict grid structure characterize the early paintings by Catherine Lee, which will be on view in The Mark Paintings 1977-79 at Galerie Lelong. Drawing from Minimalist practices, Lee’s purity of form has intellectual rigor but evokes the tenacity and sensitivity of the human hand. The Mark Paintings 1977-79 opens to the public on Friday, November 30, from 6 to 8 pm, and the artist will be present.
