From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1965 graphite by Frank Stella, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This drawing shows bold stripes in bright colors—yellow, blue, and pink—on a grid of graph paper. The lines are uneven, some jagged, others slightly wavy, creating a rough shape. The colors feel thick and solid, like crayon or pencil pressed hard. The grid background makes the stripes stand out even more. It looks like the artist used the paper’s lines to help shape the design. Look up Frank Stella to see how he played with shapes and color in other works.
Frank Philip Stella was an American painter, sculptor, and printmaker, noted for his work in the areas of minimalism and post-painterly abstraction.
