Untitled is a 1975 paint by General Idea, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a row of identical figures standing under blocky, floating platforms. Each figure has a long, narrow body with a leopard-print pattern on the lower half and a dark, featureless head. The background is a plain, peachy color with a wavy line at the bottom. The figures look like they’re trapped in a repeating loop, all facing the same way. The text on the right side is a list of instructions—like a puzzle or a game—written in a small, neat font.
