Untitled is a 1997 ink by Helen Gilbert, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This print is mostly black, white, and blue. Sharp shapes float on a light background. One big blue-black shape sits tilted, like a box on its side. A thin red line cuts across the right side. Some jagged black marks look like torn paper. The artist used a mix of clean lines and rough edges. The black shapes feel heavy, while the white space stays open. Look up lithography to see how prints like this are made.
Helen Gilbert (1922 – 8 April 2002), also known as Helen Gilbert-Bushnell, Helen Odell Gilbert and Helen Odell, was an American artist and art-educator born in Mare Island, California.
