Untitled is a 1988 acrylic by Lari Pittman, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is a wild mix of shapes and colors. You see feathers, swirls, and circles—some bright orange, some dark gray. There’s a big brown shape in the middle that looks like a bird or maybe a mask. The background has patches of green, blue, and white, with lines and scribbles everywhere. It feels busy but also kind of balanced. The artist layered colors and textures, almost like collage. Some parts look painted, others stamped or printed. The feathers and circles repeat, giving it a pattern-like feel. Look up Lari Pittman next to see how this artist plays with shapes and materials.
