Untitled is a 1969 ink by David Diao, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is just a flat, light beige rectangle. There’s no picture—just a smooth, even surface with faint vertical lines running down the middle. In the bottom corners, tiny numbers and a signature are barely visible. It looks like someone erased the image, leaving only the paper and the ghost of lines. The artist might have been playing with the idea of nothingness or blankness. Check out David Diao to see how he worked with emptiness in other pieces.
