Grand Street 1969

"Grand Street" is a 1969 painting by Brice Marden that is a prime example of Minimalism. This work is comprised of three vertical panels, painted in different shades of gray, pink, and white, and is notable for its reduction of form and color. The minimalist aesthetic is characterized by its simplicity, geometric shapes, and an emphasis on the properties of the materials themselves. Marden's work, like that of many other Minimalist artists, is often interpreted as a meditation on the nature of perception and the limitations of representation.
