1966
oil
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1966 oil by Lucio Fontana, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows three green shapes cut out of aluminum foil, set against a light gray background. The shapes look like stretched or twisted forms, with small holes punched in rows along their edges. The foil has a slight sheen, catching the light unevenly. The holes are evenly spaced, almost like a pattern, but the shapes themselves don’t match anything real. The cuts are clean, and the foil looks thin, almost like it could ripple if touched. Next, look up Lucio Fontana.
Lucio Fontana (Italian: ; 19 February 1899 – 7 September 1968) was an Argentine-Italian sculptor, painter, and theorist.
