Untitled is a 1983 graphite by Julije Knifer, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is a graphite drawing on paper with simple lines and shapes. It's made up of repeating patterns. The artist used basic forms to create a complex design, which is interesting because it shows how simple things can be combined to make something more complicated.
