Tremolo

Agnes Martin
American, born Canada. 1912–2004
1962
An ink-on-paper drawing in which Agnes Martin lays down a hushed, hand-drawn grid of fine, wavering lines to make inner rhythm and quietness perceptible.
Created in 1962, Tremolo shows how Martin transformed the grid into a vehicle for meditation and subtle emotion, helping redefine minimalism by revealing the expressive power of restraint and meticulous handwork.
