Untitled 1960

Howard Mehring's "Untitled" from 1960 is a minimalist work of abstract art, showcasing an all-over pattern of rust-like red and brown pigments. The painting, which has no defined focal point, evokes a sense of texture and depth, emphasizing the materiality of the paint itself. The repetition of the small circular marks creates a sense of energy and movement, drawing the viewer's eye across the surface. Mehring's work often explored the textures and patterns found in nature, and this piece exemplifies his interest in capturing the subtle beauty of the everyday.
