2015 Water Lillies

Agnes Martin was one of the most influential painters of her generation and left an enduring mark on the history of modern and contemporary art.

The colors appearing in Incandela’s work, ranging from light pinks and yellows to dark plum tones, are achieved by exposing the photographic paper to light, which changes the paper’s color until fixed. These colors changes are organic to the paper’s oxidation process, not the result of added pigment. Incandela’s unique and varied techniques have enabled him to create both cool and warm tones in the same picture by over - and under - developing certain areas, producing coloristic illusions of depth rarely seen in black- and- white photography.
