Untitled
1938
graphite
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1938 graphite by Oskar Schlemmer, depicting letter, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is a mix of typewriting, pencil, and colored pencil on paper. It's a sketch with typed notes and colorful shapes. The notes and shapes seem to be plans for a performance, with costume ideas and stage directions. The sketch has a lot of details, like tiny drawings of people and props. It looks like the artist was thinking about how to bring a story to life on stage. The colors and shapes are simple, but they give a sense of movement and energy.
