GRIDS: Format and Image in the 20th Century

Made to accompany a 1979 group exhibition on view at Pace in New York and The Akron Art Institute, Ohio, this catalogue brings together historic works by Josef Albers, Carl Andre, Robert Irwin, Lee Krasner, Ellsworth Kelly, Eva Hesse, Sol LeWitt, Agnes Martin, Ad Reinhardt, Louise Nevelson, and Frank Stella, among others.

The book includes a text by Rosalind Krauss, and its design alludes to the theme of the exhibition—the grid as a pictorial device and thematic element—through an overlay plastic grid cover in one version of the book. A second version with a plain cover was produced, which is available here.
