Paperback. Condition: Good. If the closure of Modernist painting is taken as the closure of painting itself, then under the aegis of postmodernism, painting's history is a finite collection of fully legible styles up for being quoted. In this circumstance, the question arises of whether there exists such a thing as an abstract painting. Judging from Morris's work, the answer is a resounding "Yes!" Her shapes, lines, colors, gestures, and surfaces function as an Ur or proto language of abstraction in which one can discern the compositional logic of Stella's black paintings, an isolated Pollock-like splatter, or a Hoffmanesque approach to the juxtaposition of color.

Westfall examines Morris's relationship to contemporary urban material culture, tracing the redemptive transformation of the cheap, grimy and gauche that occurs in her paintings. Diederichsen locates the place of Morris's work within the rocky history of abstract painting, concluding ultimately that Morris's practice points out a way around the polarization of modernism's and postmodernism's constructions of the genre.…
