[1] Her works have been shown in the Newark College of Engineering, the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston, and the Architektur Zentrum in Vienna.
[2] Her late husband, the writer Walter Abish, wrote The Shape of Absence in 1990, based on her work.
[5] Abish, Carl Andre, Beverly Pepper, and Tony Smith created a "Statement of Sculptors" that was published in the December 1975 issue of Art Journal.
The result, says reviewer Barbera Cavaliere, "suggests a continuum within the structure… a sweeping arabesque motion only partially present in the incised arcs, enhancing the lyrical flow felt also in the scattered shiny marbles.
Abish participated in "Deconstruction/Reconstruction: The Transformation of Photographic Information Into Metaphor", an art exhibition focused on photomanipulation.
[7] Specifically for Abish, multiple photographs were taken and were essentially cut into jigsaw puzzle pieces, which were then rearranged and reassembled to create new works, such as Firsthand.
[2] Abish contributed the graphic art for volume 15 (April 1984) of Fiction International, the first issue published by San Diego University Press.
