Untitled is a 1922 graphite by Aleksandr Rodchenko, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows a grid of simple shapes—lines, circles, and squares—arranged in rows. Some look like stars, others like boxes with X’s inside. The pencil lines are light, almost like quick notes. The paper has a grid background, making the shapes line up neatly. The artist played with how shapes balance and tilt, even adding a few wonky angles. It’s like a puzzle where every piece matters. Next, check out Aleksandr Rodchenko to see how he turned simple lines into bold ideas.
Aleksander Mikhailovich Rodchenko (Russian: Александр Михайлович Родченко; 5 December 1891 – 3 December 1956) was a Russian and Soviet artist, sculptor, photographer, and graphic designer.
