Untitled is a 1986 oil by Ellsworth Kelly, a contemporary_abstract work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows three flat, solid shapes on a white wall. On the left is a bright orange triangle, in the middle a deep black triangle, and on the right a green diamond. The shapes are simple, with no extra details or shading—just bold colors against the plain background. The triangles and diamond look like they’re floating, even though they’re clearly painted on three separate canvases. The colors stand out sharply, with no blending or shadows. If you like this kind of clean, color-focused art, check out Ellsworth Kelly.
