Untitled is a 1986 ink by Bill Jensen, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows two swirling shapes that look like gears or wheels. One is red and black, the other blue and yellow, with sharp lines and dark shadows. The background is mostly empty white space, letting the bold colors stand out. The artist used a mix of scratchy lines and smooth tones to create texture. The way the shapes twist gives them a sense of movement, even though they’re not actually moving. Want to see more work like this? Check out etching to learn about the techniques used.
Bill Jensen (b. 1945) was an American artist, born in Minneapolis.
