Untitled is a 1984 ink by Luis Camnitzer, held at Museum of Modern Art.
The painting features a lightbulb with its glass broken and hanging from a thin wire. The bulb is centered in a dark background, with a subtle blue glow emanating from above. A handwritten note below the image reads, "They worked through the night." This adds a sense of context to the scene, suggesting that the lightbulb was used for a prolonged period. The painting is part of a series of thirty-five photoetchings, showcasing the artist's skill in combining different techniques to create a unique visual effect.
