Untitled is a 1984 oil by Jeff Koons, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting features a soccer ball as its central subject, rendered in oil and pencil on graph paper. The ball is depicted in a simple, two-dimensional style, with a white body and red accents. A dark green hexagon is visible at the ball's center. The artist's use of graph paper as a medium adds a layer of complexity to the work, as the grid pattern underlying the ball creates a sense of tension between the organic shape of the ball and the rigid structure of the paper. For more information on the artist's use of unconventional materials, explore the work of Jeff Koons.
