Untitled is a 1972 ink by Daniel Spoerri, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This print shows a dark, tangled forest scene with bare branches and a few scattered bones on the ground. In the lower right corner, a figure sits hunched over, wrapped in a dark cloak with a yellowish hood. The background is mostly gray and black, with faint text running along the bottom edge. The text is in German and talks about a decayed body—only bones left—found in the woods. The artist used a mix of rough textures and simple shapes to create the eerie mood. If this style intrigues you, look up Daniel Spoerri next.
Daniel Spoerri was a Romanian-born Swiss visual artist and writer. He is considered to be an important figure among the artists within the so-called "second wave" of the Pop art movement.
