Untitled is a 2000 by Rob Voerman, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a tangled mess of buildings under construction. Wooden scaffolding crisscrosses everywhere, with a few flat rooftops peeking through. One section is covered in soot, making it look dirty and smoky. The colors are mostly browns and grays, with a single white roof standing out. The soot isn’t just paint—it’s real soot mixed into the artwork. That’s part of how the artist made it look gritty and real. Next, check out Rob Voerman to see how he uses unexpected materials like this.
