Interview with Brice Marden


January 30–April 19, 2009

Brice Marden interviewed during the installation of The Third Mind: American Artists Contemplate Asia, 1860–1989.

What Brice Marden, Minimalist artist and avid student of East Asian visual and literary arts, sees in Chinese calligraphy is simply “a beautiful abstraction” that speaks to his lifelong interest in “the complexity of a very simple situation.”
