Untitled is a 2005 ink by Slavs and Tatars, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This print shows a repeating list of country names in bold, green and black text. The words wrap around like a loop, with "you can’t take the Slav out of the Slav" underlined at the bottom. The design is simple but fills the whole page with text. The artist group Slavs and Tatars made this as a playful take on identity and language. It’s not tied to a specific art style but uses bold typography to make its point. If you like this kind of text-based art, check out The Museum of Modern Art for more examples.
Slavs and Tatars is an art collective and "a faction of polemics and intimacies devoted to an area east of the former Berlin Wall and west of the Great Wall of China known as Eurasia".
