About this work

This painting is a lithograph, titled Untitled, created by John Pearson in 1968. It is held at The Museum of Modern Art. The artwork features a grid pattern with alternating light purple and green squares. Thin teal lines are placed vertically within some of the squares, adding a pop of color to the overall design. The grid pattern creates a sense of order and structure, while the teal lines introduce a touch of playfulness. The use of a grid pattern and bold colors is reminiscent of the Op Art movement, which was popular during the 1960s.
