Untitled is a 1983 ink by Christian Jaccard, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This print shows two big circles stacked on top of each other. The circles have sharp lines inside them, almost like gears or a maze. The colors are mostly brown and white, with some splatters around the edges. The artist used a process that lets ink sit on a flat stone before pressing paper onto it. That’s why the lines look crisp but the edges are messy. Look up lithography next to see how this printing trick works.
