Untitled is a 1977 graphite by Jiro Takamatsu, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This is a simple drawing of a slanted tabletop, made with ballpoint pen and pencil. The lines are straight and precise, forming rectangles of different sizes. Numbers are written inside each shape, likely measurements in centimeters. The paper looks like a notebook page, with a faint grid and some Japanese text at the top. The drawing feels more like a sketch or a quick note than a finished work. Check out Jiro Takamatsu to see more of his work.
Jirō Takamatsu (高松 次郎, Takamatsu Jirō; 20 February 1936 – 25 June 1998) was one of the most important postwar Japanese artists.
