Untitled is a 1979 oil by Frank Stella, a contemporary_abstract work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sculpture is a wild tangle of bright colors and sharp lines. Thick stripes of red, blue, yellow, and green swirl around each other in loops and curves. Some parts look like they’re stacked up, while others stretch out like ribbons. The surface is rough, with thick paint and bits of wire mesh mixed in. The mix of paint and metal gives it a heavy, almost industrial feel. It’s not trying to look like anything real—just bold shapes and colors. If you like this, check out Frank Stella.
