About this work

This is a black-and-white diagram of how to hang seven rectangular artworks on a wall. You see boxes labeled A through G, each with lines showing where they should go. Some lines are orange, others red, and there are little brackets marking hooks. The scale at the bottom says it’s a quarter-size version of the real setup. The artist, Yukihisa Isobe, made this in 1968. It’s not a painting but a screenprint—like a detailed instruction sheet for a gallery.
