Untitled 1950

Carmen Herrera's "Untitled" from 1950 is a striking example of geometric abstraction. The painting, composed solely of black and white, features a single, sharply angled black shape against a stark white background. This minimalist approach is characteristic of Herrera's work, which often explores the interplay of form and color. The simplicity of the composition invites the viewer to contemplate the relationship between negative and positive space, line and plane, and the fundamental elements of visual perception.
