Untitled is a 1978 ink by Roberto Matta, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is a colorful, abstract piece featuring a mix of human and animal figures. The figures are drawn in various poses, with some appearing to be in motion. The background is a light beige color, with blue and green splatters throughout. In the center of the painting, there is a large, abstract shape that resembles a house or building. Surrounding this shape are several smaller figures, including a person with a bird's head and a dog-like creature. The overall effect of the painting is one of energy and movement, with the figures seeming to dance across the canvas.
