Untitled is a 1965 ink by Allan Kaprow, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows a man sitting on a stool, holding a phone to his ear. Behind him, a blue wall holds messy handwritten words like “calling…” and “cars tied in silver foil.” The scene looks like a phone booth or a corner of a street. The words describe a weird, chaotic story—maybe about people waiting and calling names. The drawing feels fast and scribbled, like a quick note or a doodle. If you like this style, check out lithography to see how artists print images this way.
Allan Kaprow (August 23, 1927 – April 5, 2006) was an American performance artist, installation artist, painter, and assemblagist . He helped to develop the "Environment" and "Happening" in the late 1950s and 1960s, as well as their theory.
