Dominant colour
Untitled is a 1993 graphite by Lawrence Weiner, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This piece shows two yellow rectangles stacked vertically. Inside each is a faint, sketchy image of mountains with text in English and Dutch: *"As Time Goes By"* and *"Als Tijd Verstrijkt."* The background is white, surrounded by rows of bold red and blue Xs, some crossed like multiplication signs. The Xs are arranged in a border, creating a grid-like pattern around the rectangles. The text inside looks like it might fade if you tilt your head—it’s almost invisible at first glance. Next, check out cross-hatching to see how artists use lines to create depth.
Lawrence Charles Weiner (February 10, 1942 – December 2, 2021) was an artist born and raised in New York City.
