I love Donna Dennis’ journals from 1971-84 or so, called Writing Toward Dawn 🍃

Me too! Truitt’s are beautiful! Agnes Martin, Writings, a classic—less a journal than statements

Oh, I didn't know she had writings! She strikes me as the type of artist who would've burned all her personal effects before her death

Hall—hers is very stark and powerful writing. There’s a book, long out of print, called AM: Writings—and in 2015 or so Arne Glimcher published a major book on both her work and writings. You are right! She did destroy old unwanted work and asked AG to as well, if a work did not feel true—the writings have that same laser focus.
