Untitled is a 2004 ink by Álvaro Barrios, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This image shows a group of six people gathered around a white toilet. They’re dressed in mid-century clothes, laughing and pointing at it. The background is a blurry outdoor scene with trees and sky. Speech bubbles in Spanish pop up around them, joking about the toilet’s weirdness and cost. The artist added a mix of colors—bright red borders, blue bubbles, and soft pastels—to make it look like a funny comic. The toilet is the star, but the people’s reactions make it feel like a silly surprise. Next, check out lithography to see how artists print images like this.
Álvaro Barrios (b. 1945) was a Colombian artist, born in Barranquilla.
