Untitled is a 1952 oil by Theodor Werner, a Contemporary Abstract work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is a mix of bold colors and sharp shapes. Big blocks of red, blue, and white clash against a dark background. Some lines look like they’re scribbled fast—thick and uneven—while others are smooth and bright. A few small circles and blobs sit in the corners, almost like afterthoughts. The brushstrokes are thick in places, almost like the paint was slapped on. That rough texture makes the colors pop even more. If you like this style, check out impasto.
Theodor Werner (1886–1969) was a German artist, born in Jettenburg.
