Untitled is a 1944 ink by Asger Jorn, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting looks like a wild mix of colors and shapes. Bright reds, blues, and yellows clash and overlap in messy, uneven strokes. Some areas are thick and bold, while others fade into faint lines. There’s no clear picture—just swirls, blocks, and splashes that don’t quite form anything you’d recognize. The brushwork feels fast and loose, like the artist didn’t slow down. The colors pop against the white background, making everything feel energetic and a little chaotic. If you like this style, check out lithography to see how artists print bold, layered images like this.
