Untitled is a 2003 gouache by Neil Farber, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a group of skeletons in various poses. They are drawn in black ink on white paper, with some details filled in with gouache. The skeletons are arranged in a loose circle, with some standing and others sitting or leaning on each other. The skeletons all have similar features, with large heads and long limbs. They are all facing different directions, giving the impression that they are in motion. The use of gouache adds a touch of color to the otherwise monochrome drawing. The artist, Neil Farber, uses a playful style to depict the skeletons, making them seem more like cartoon characters than spooky figures. The overall effect is one of whimsy and humor.
