Untitled is a 1989 by Marilyn Minter, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a row of identical blue figures standing side by side. They all face the same way, with their arms crossed. The background is a solid, lighter blue, and the whole image looks slightly faded, like an old print. The artist used a blueprint process and added a chemical spray to give it that worn, almost ghostly look. The figures are simple and repeated, making the piece feel both orderly and a little strange. Check out Marilyn Minter to see how she plays with everyday images in unexpected ways.
Marilyn Minter (born 1948) is an American visual artist who is perhaps best known for her sensual paintings and photographs done in the photorealism style that blurs the line between commercial and fine art.
