No one believes the time is running so fast but actually, it is. I cannot believe that the pictures of the Louise was so beautiful at the age of the young but suddenly shocking news comes that she is no more. So, time is running very fast. I will definitely take my friends with me on the nearest screening of the film. Agnes Martin is really powerful woman of her time. Her life is an inspiration for individuals like me that feels empty inside. She is the reason why I was able to overcome my depression back then. I hope that my family would also be inspired by the story of Agnes. I am really thankful that you have posted this reminder about the screenings of the movie. Leave a Reply. |
