Untitled is a 1970 ink by On Kawara, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This image shows twenty-eight small, colorful photos arranged in a grid. Each photo depicts a different city scene—some with buildings, others with parks, bridges, or trains. The colors are bright but muted, like a sunny day with a soft light. The twist? These aren’t paintings—they’re postcards. The artist stamped ink on each one to create this grid, like a puzzle of snapshots. Check out On Kawara next to see more of his work.
On Kawara (河原温, Kawara On; January 2, 1933 – July 10, 2014) was a Japanese conceptual artist who lived in SoHo, New York City, from 1965 until his death.
