1963
ink
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1963 ink by Anni Albers, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This image shows a tangled web of black lines on a light, textured background. The lines twist and loop, overlapping in places but never quite forming clear shapes. The paper looks worn, with small dark spots scattered across it. The artist used a printing method that lets ink sit on a smooth stone before pressing it onto paper. That’s how the lines got so clean and sharp. Check out lithography to see how this technique works.
Anni Albers (born Annelise Elsa Frieda Fleischmann; June 12, 1899 – May 9, 1994) was a German-Jewish visual artist and printmaker.
