Untitled 1965

Mira Schendel's "Untitled" from 1965 is a prime example of the artist's experimental and abstract approach to art. It's characterized by a textured, earthy surface that resembles aged, distressed material. The work's monochromatic palette, primarily browns and grays, further enhances this effect, evoking the passage of time and the inherent beauty of weathered surfaces. Schendel's explorations in this period often focused on the materiality of paint and its capacity to evoke the tactile and the ephemeral, making "Untitled" a compelling study in the power of abstraction.
