Untitled is a 1964 ink by Fritz Glarner, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This drawing looks like a circle split into four uneven sections. Inside each part, there are quick, sketchy lines—some black, some gray—that make shapes that don’t quite add up to anything real. Bright colors like yellow, red, and blue pop up in small patches, almost like they were added after the rest. The lines feel rushed, like they were drawn fast, and the whole thing sits on a plain white background. The artist signed it in the corner with the year 1964. It’s not trying to show a real place or person—just shapes and colors that don’t match anything you’d see in everyday life. If you like this kind of loose, abstract drawing, check out lithography to see how it’s made.
Fritz Glarner was a Swiss-American painter. He was a proponent of Concrete Art movement and a disciple of Piet Mondrian.
