Untitled is a 1976 ink by Rebecca Horn, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows quick, loose drawings of an umbrella in different positions. Some are flat, others open wide, with lines marking how it moves. Below, there’s a side view of a hand holding the umbrella, and a few numbered steps. The notes in German (*"Spreizen der Benin"*) hint this might be about how the umbrella opens or stands. The lines look like they’re testing balance or motion. Want to see more? Check out cross-hatching—this sketch uses it to show depth.
