Untitled is a 1963 ink by Jan Forsberg, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This image is a collage of cut-up photos and text stuck onto a red-brown background. The pieces overlap in messy layers, showing faces, words, and random shapes. Some photos are blurry, others sharp. A few faces stand out—one man in a dark coat, a woman with short hair. The artist glued together old magazine clippings, tickets, and handwritten notes. It looks like a scrapbook that got torn apart and reassembled. The mix of images feels chaotic but intentional. Next, check out etching to see how artists carve into metal plates to make prints like this one.
