Untitled is a 1990 ink by Susan Rothenberg, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is all dark brown blocks with white lines. The lines twist and climb—some straight, some wavy—like vines or cracks. On the right side, a rough shape looks like a curled-up animal or maybe a person lying down. The white lines stand out sharply against the wood-grain background. The artist used a tool to carve into wood, then inked the grooves to make the lines. Try looking up woodcut to see how this print was made.
Susan Charna Rothenberg (January 20, 1945 – May 18, 2020) was an American contemporary painter, printmaker, sculptor, and draughtswoman.
