Untitled is a 1972 acrylic by Abdias Nascimento, a Contemporary Abstract work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is packed with bold colors and strange shapes. On the left, there’s a big yellow triangle with an eye staring out. Below it, a dark face with red lines looks serious. To the right, a blue triangle holds another eye and a black circle. A green bird sits near a yellow shape with a stick figure. The colors are bright and flat, with no soft edges. The faces and shapes don’t look real—they’re more like symbols. The artist mixed sharp lines with wild patterns. Check out Abdias Nascimento to learn more about the artist behind this work.
Abdias Nascimento (1914–2011) was a Brazilian artist.
