What is the historical significance of the title Venus in Marden's 1991 work?
In 1991, Marden was deeply influenced by classical themes and the organic curves of the human form. The title 'Venus' refers to the Roman goddess of beauty, reflected in the print's lyrical, winding lines that suggest grace and fertility within an abstract framework.
How did Brice Marden's style evolve during the creation of Venus (1991)?
