Untitled is a 1987 gouache by Anish Kapoor, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is a big, bold splash of red. The color isn’t flat—it’s thick and messy, with streaks and drips that look almost like cracks or roots spreading out. Some parts are darker, almost black, while others glow bright red. The edges feel rough, like the paint was slapped on or scraped across the paper. The texture makes it look alive, like something growing or breaking apart. The artist used gouache, which is a water-based paint that can be layered thickly.
