Untitled is a 1983 gouache by Jiro Takamatsu, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows tangled, colorful lines crisscrossing a light background. The lines are thin and thick, in blues, greens, yellows, and reds, overlapping in a messy, web-like pattern. The paper has a rough, textured look, with some areas smudged or scraped. The signature in the corner says "Jiro Takamatsu '83," hinting this was made in 1983. The artist used soft colors and loose strokes, making it feel spontaneous. Check out gouache to see how this paint works.
Jirō Takamatsu (高松 次郎, Takamatsu Jirō; 20 February 1936 – 25 June 1998) was one of the most important postwar Japanese artists.
