Untitled is a 1967 paint by Carl Andre, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This piece is a sheet of paper covered in rows of the word "red." The letters are typed in a grid, filling most of the page. The background is a pale yellow, and the word is printed in a light gray ink. The artist used a typewriter to create this work, repeating the same word over and over. It’s simple but feels deliberate—like a pattern or a puzzle. The repetition makes you notice how the word looks different in each row. If you like this, check out Carl Andre—he made a lot of art like this.
Carl Andre was an American minimalist artist recognized for his ordered linear and grid format sculptures. His sculptures range from large public artworks, to large interior works exhibited on the floor, to small intimate works.
