Untitled
2004
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 2004 by Marco Maggi, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This work shows three large panels filled with small, empty picture frames. Each frame has a thin white border, and some have faint marks or shadows inside. The frames are arranged in a grid, making a clean, orderly pattern. The whole piece looks flat, like cut paper. The artist used real paper cutouts to create the frames, giving it a textured, almost three-dimensional feel. The shadows inside some frames suggest something might have been there—or maybe nothing at all. Check out Marco Maggi to see how he plays with simple shapes and ideas.
