This painting shows a dark, shadowy figure with sharp, jagged lines cutting through it. The background is light with faint marks, while the figure is thick black paint. The edges are uneven, like something was scraped or dripped. The artist used two sheets of clear plastic, then painted on them. That’s why the lines look like they’re cutting through the shape. Look up Norman Bluhm next to see more of his bold, layered work.
