Untitled is a 1973 graphite by Jannis Kounellis, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This drawing shows a simple room corner. There’s a door with a handle and a window with panes. On the wall sits a kerosene lamp with a glass chimney. The lines are light, almost like a sketch. The lamp is real—it’s placed right on the paper. The rest looks drawn in pencil. Look up Jannis Kounellis to see how he mixed real objects with art.
Jannis Kounellis (Greek: Γιάννης Κουνέλλης; 23 March 1936 – 16 February 2017) was a Greek Italian artist based in Rome. A key figure associated with Arte Povera, he studied at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Rome.
