Untitled is a 1994 graphite by Frédéric Bruly Bouabré, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting features a grid of nine circles, arranged in three rows of three, with alternating colors of yellow and brown. The top row is set against a light blue background, while the bottom row is on a green background. The middle row has a beige background. Above the top row, there are three fish-like drawings, and the entire composition is framed by a blue border with handwritten text in French. The text along the border reads, "VOYEZ DANS SA CREATION L'HOMME AVIET INVENTER LES BILLES," which translates to "SEE IN HIS CREATION THE MAN HAS INVENTED THE MARBLES." The use of colored pencils and ballpoint pen on board gives the piece a textured, handmade quality.
