Untitled is a 1978 ink by Antonio Caro, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This drawing is all black ink on light paper. The lines are thick and tangled, twisting into shapes that look like faces, stars, and tangled roots. Some parts are sharp angles, others are wavy and uneven. There’s a sense of movement, even though nothing is really moving. The artist signed it in the corner with the year 1978. The ink feels like it was drawn quickly, with energy. If you like this style, look up Antonio Caro next.
