Milk Stone 1978

Wolfgang Laib's 1978 "Milk Stone" is a minimal sculpture housed at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA). The artwork consists of a simple white stone placed on a wooden floor, a stark contrast that invites viewers to contemplate the relationship between natural and artificial elements. The minimalist aesthetic of the piece, characteristic of Laib's practice, emphasizes the inherent beauty of everyday materials and invites contemplation of the subtle interplay between form and space.
