Untitled is a 1980 ink by Paul Mogensen, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a simple, geometric shape against a dark background. The shape is a rectangle made of lighter, golden lines and blocks. Some lines are broken or dotted, and the whole thing looks like it’s made of wood with gold added. The artist used a printing method where the design is carved into wood, then inked. The gold leaf gives it a fancy, almost glowing look. Check out woodcut to see how this printing trick works.
