From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 2001 graphite by Alex Grey, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows two figures leaning close together. The person on the left has a bald head and a beard, while the one on the right looks younger, with short hair and a focused expression. Both are holding what looks like a flat object, maybe a book or tablet, with their hands resting on it. The artist used lots of fine pencil lines to build up the shapes, giving the drawing a textured, almost three-dimensional feel. The background is fuzzy, keeping the focus on the two figures.
