Untitled 1959

Richards Ruben's "Untitled" (1959) is a pastel drawing on paper, representing a reclining nude figure. The abstract and gestural style of the work reflects Ruben's artistic approach, known for its emphasis on form and movement. The use of vibrant pastel colors, particularly reds and greens, creates a sense of energy and depth. The figure's pose and the artist's loose brushstrokes suggest a spontaneous and intimate study of the human body. This drawing exemplifies Ruben's unique artistic voice and his exploration of figurative art.
