This painting is a box full of old brushes. They stick straight up like a forest. The brushes are red, brown, and beige. Some are short, some are long. The box is clear plastic, so you can see all the brushes inside. The artist packed thousands of brushes into this box. It looks like a messy pile, but it’s all planned. The brushes don’t fall over because they’re glued in place. Look up Arman next to see how he turned junk into art.
