"Tag und Nacht I F1-F5" (1997) by Imi Knoebel is a minimalist artwork comprised of five colored squares arranged in a horizontal line. The squares, in order, are yellow, red, blue, off-white, and white. Each square is outlined with a thin yellow or blue line, creating a subtle visual rhythm across the composition. The artwork is characterized by its simple, geometric forms and its emphasis on color, demonstrating the artist's interest in abstract expressionism and the exploration of pure form and color. The artwork explores the concept of day and night, with the contrasting colors and shapes reflecting the duality of light and darkness.
