Untitled is a 31 ink by Stephen Prina, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This is two framed works on a white wall. The piece on the left is a blank, pale yellow square. The one on the right is a grid of tiny squares—some are empty, others have faint brown ink marks. The text at the top reads *"Exquisite Corpse: The Complete Paintings of Marat, begun January 1, 1989."* The artist turned a famous story into a puzzle. Each tiny square represents a tiny part of a painting that never actually existed—just an idea. Look up lithography to see how prints like this are made.
Stephen Prina (born 1954) is an American artist. His work has been categorized as post-conceptualism. Prina is a professor at the Department of Visual and Environmental Studies (VES) at Harvard University.
