Abstract City 1927

Abraham Walkowitz's 1927 lithograph "Abstract City" is a powerful example of the artist's abstract style. The work depicts a cityscape with towering buildings represented by a dynamic network of overlapping lines, creating a sense of urban density. The use of black and white creates a strong contrast, emphasizing the city's dynamism and intensity. The work's abstract style reflects the artistic trends of the early 20th century, such as Cubism and Futurism, which sought to express the dynamism of modern life through abstract means.
