Untitled is a 2003 paint by Lothar Hempel, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a tall, skinny figure with a green hat and a pale face. The body is made of sharp, flat shapes—white, gray, and dark brown—like stacked blocks. The legs are long and thin, almost bending at the knees, and the figure stands on a red square with a grid drawn on it. The face looks almost blank, with just a small circle for an eye. The colors are simple but bold, with the green hat standing out against the warm brown background. If you like this style, look up Lothar Hempel for more of his work.
