Untitled is a 1918 oil by Katherine S. Dreier, a Abstract Expressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is full of bold, clashing shapes. Bright yellow and red circles overlap with sharp black triangles. A white curved line cuts through the middle, like a blade or a wave. The colors are thick and uneven, with brushstrokes that stand out. The painting doesn’t look like anything real—it’s more about angles and color than objects. The artist played with how shapes push against each other, almost like a puzzle. Next, look up impasto to see how thick paint can change a painting’s texture.
Katherine Sophie Dreier (September 10, 1877 – March 29, 1952) was an American artist, lecturer, patron of the arts, and social reformer.
