Untitled is a 1990 graphite by Gego, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is a grid of small squares. Some squares are white. Others are a dull yellowish color. The lines are uneven, like woven strips. It looks rough but neat at the same time. The artist used real cut paper and plastic packaging. They stitched the pieces together by hand. No brushes or paint here—just simple materials.
