1975
ink
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1975 ink by James Brooks, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is a mix of bold colors—bright yellows, deep blues, and pops of red and green—smeared and layered in messy, uneven shapes. The background is mostly white, with some areas of blue and green streaks. There’s no clear picture of anything real; just big, rough patches of color that don’t quite form anything you’d recognize. The artist used a printing method called screenprinting, which lets ink pass through a stencil to create these loose, uneven marks. It’s like someone splattered paint on paper but in a controlled, repeated way. If you like this loose, colorful style, check out James Brooks for more work like this.
James David Brooks (October 18, 1906 – March 9, 1992) was an American Abstract Expressionist, muralist, abstract painter, art teacher, and winner of the Logan Medal of the Arts.
