Untitled is a 1969 ink by Kenneth Showell, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This print is a mix of flat colors on a rough, textured background. Bright blocks—red, green, yellow, blue—sit unevenly across a light gray surface. Some shapes overlap, others float alone. The colors pop against the rough, almost cracked look of the paper. The artist used a printing method that lets colors sit side by side without blending. The texture makes it feel like the colors are pressed into the surface. Look up Kenneth Showell to see more of his work.
Kenneth Showell (1939–1997) was an American artist, born in Huron.
