Untitled is a 1990 ink by Brice Marden, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This drawing shows four tall, twisted figures standing side by side. Their bodies are made of sharp, jagged lines that seem to bend and stretch in odd ways. The background is mostly blank white, so the black ink really stands out. The figures don’t look like anything real—they’re more like tangled shapes. The lines are uneven, almost like they were drawn quickly or with a rough tool. If you like this style, look up etching to see how artists use acid and metal plates to create these kinds of marks.
