About this work

Franz Bernheimer made this abstract drawing in 1989. It’s a work on paper, not meant to show a clear scene. You’ll find it at the Victoria and Albert Museum. The artist studied biology in Europe before moving to the U.S. in 1939. His lines twist together in ways that feel alive, like cells or gears. That mix shows how science and machines shaped the 1900s. Look up Franz Bernheimer next.
