From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1985 pastel by John Pearson, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is an abstract piece featuring a mix of curved and straight lines, with a dominant brown shape that resembles a leaf or a teardrop. The brown shape is outlined by a white curved line, which is broken by a blue triangle. The background is a light beige color with subtle shading, giving the impression of depth. The composition is balanced, with the brown shape and blue triangle creating a sense of tension and harmony. The use of pastel colors adds a softness to the overall effect. The artist's use of pastel, conté crayon, charcoal, and pencil on paper creates a unique texture and visual interest. For more works like this, explore the collection of The Museum of Modern Art.
