Presumably you're talking about Agnes Martin, who had an exhibition at Guggenheim a few years ago. If you aren't my apologies.
She had a lot of paintings that look like empty canvas from afar but show lot of details up close [0]
You don't have to like her work, but dismissing her paintings as "full of shit" is, well, remarkably full of...
Minimalism was her artistic choice that spanned many decades, and who knows how much time she spent to master her pursuit. She was so into her choice, she sought out to destroy her earlier works [1]
She was recognized by her peers, who are more qualified than you and I in judging at the very least technique and dedication.

- arexxbifs 6y agoThis was a mixed exhibition 11 years ago. The blank canvases were by three different artists. At least one of them had white primer on it, though. There were other paintings by other artists on display, too. I believe the main exhibition was designer clothes, can’t remember what brand (LV or Gucci or something like that).
