Untitled 1953

Karl Otto Gotz’s Untitled, from 1953, is a work of abstract expressionism. Using gestural brushstrokes, the artist creates a dynamic composition, full of swirling forms and energetic lines. The artwork utilizes a limited color palette, incorporating mainly black, gray, yellow, and blue, lending a sense of depth and dynamism to the abstract form. The use of broad, sweeping strokes is characteristic of abstract expressionism, which emphasizes the artist’s emotional expression and the spontaneity of the creative process.
