New York–based artist Marley Freeman (born 1981) works with a steadfast devotion to process. Her paintings emerge over extended periods, seamlessly navigating the realms of transparency and opacity. The selection of works in this book chronicles her ongoing inquiry into painting’s expressive capacity.

This volume commemorates New York–based painter Marley Freeman’s (born 1981) 2019 solo exhibition of her abstractions at Karma with an essay by Lauren O’Neill-Butler, who writes that Freeman’s “works offer an alternative, an option to opt-out of signifying monolithically.”
Here, New York–based painter Marley Freeman (born 1981) transforms the spreads of a reference book on El Greco into abstract paintings that cover text and image alike, and leaving half the book with only small traces of interventions.
