{"product_id":"books-paul-mogensen-early-1968-by-paul-mogensen","title":"Paul Mogensen - Early 1968","description":"Paul Mogensen (born 1941) had his first one-person exhibition at the Bykert Gallery, New York, in March 1967. A pioneering minimalist painter, Mogensen worked then—as now—on paintings guided by such ancient mathematical rules as the golden ratio. In early 1968, Mogensen boarded a rivet-plated British passenger ship in Madras (now Chennai), India, which traveled for six days to Penang Island, Malaya, off the west coast of Malaysia. He carried with him a children's notebook in which he drew a few ideas related to what he was seeing on his travels and worked on the arithmetic that continues to inform his paintings. Paul Mogensen: Early 1968 is a facsimile of the workbook from that time. An intimate volume, offering a glimpse of how Mogensen worked out his mathematical imagery in relation to the outside world, this publication is the only book available on this key minimalist artist.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53774161805585,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781942607953.jpg?v=1783982321","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-paul-mogensen-early-1968-by-paul-mogensen","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
