Ellsworth Kelly's little patch of Eden: while art-world fads come and go, the 77-year-old artist sticks to his ethereal abstractions

Article Abstract:

Kelly has persisted in his abstract experimentation throughout his lengthy career, ignoring the upheavals that perpetually shake the art world's foundations. An exhibition at Manhattan's Matthew Marks Gallery shows him to be more comfortable with, and possessing greater mastery over, his craft than at any time before.
