György Kepes's *Untitled* (1938) is a powerful photomontage that uses a single, large-scale photograph of a crowd to form the silhouette of a hand. The image evokes the sense of a collective mass, highlighting the power of a group and the individuals within it. The stark black and white tones of the work create a sense of drama and urgency, and the use of negative space emphasizes the hand's dominating presence over the sea of faces. Kepes, a Hungarian-American artist known for his work in photography and visual art, was a prominent figure in the Bauhaus movement, which emphasized experimental design and innovative approaches to art. This work demonstrates his keen eye for detail and ability to create impactful and evocative imagery.
