Untitled is a 1965 charcoal by Richard Artschwager, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This drawing shows three tall, empty rectangular shapes against a plain gray background. The middle shape is wider and sits between two narrower ones. All the lines are soft and slightly fuzzy, like they were drawn quickly. The artist used simple shapes and no color, making it look more like a sketch than a finished work. The paper has a light texture, and the charcoal leaves some smudges around the edges. If you like this, check out The Museum of Modern Art to see more works like this.
