Untitled (The Letter) 1964

Robert Morris' 1964 "Untitled (The Letter)" is a minimalist sculpture that depicts a single, white envelope hanging from a gray, wooden shelf. The piece, with its simple, everyday object and muted colors, is a quintessential example of minimalist art, reflecting the movement's focus on form and materiality. The work invites viewers to contemplate the inherent qualities of the object, its weight, texture, and the way it interacts with the surrounding space. "Untitled (The Letter)" has been praised for its directness, simplicity, and its ability to provoke thought and reflection.
