Untitled (study for 3-part diagonal construction for the Kestner Gesellschaft, Hanover, not executed) 1987

Fred Sandback's "Untitled (study for 3-part diagonal construction for the Kestner Gesellschaft, Hanover, not executed)" is a minimal drawing from 1987. It features a simple geometric design rendered in a thin, light-colored line, highlighting the absence of form and color. This drawing was a study for a larger, never-realized sculpture, which speaks to Sandback's exploration of negative space and the way lines can define and reshape three-dimensional space. The simplicity of this work is a hallmark of Sandback's minimalist style, reflecting his interest in reducing art to its purest essence.
