Untitled is a 1973 ink by Keith Sonnier, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This image is mostly black with a few bright white shapes. There’s a big number "8" cracked in the middle, two five-pointed stars, and a blob of white that looks like spilled paint. Pinkish handwriting is scrawled in the top corners, including the year "1973" and some letters that don’t quite make words. The white shapes stand out sharply against the dark background, almost like they were made by splashing or dripping something. The cracked number gives it a rough, uneven feel. If you like this kind of bold, simple art, check out lithography next.
Keith Sonnier (July 31, 1941 – July 18, 2020) was a postminimalist sculptor, performance artist, video and light artist.
