Study for "Loom" 1965

"Study for "Loom"" is a 1965 charcoal drawing by American sculptor Seymour Lipton (1903-1986), showcasing the artist's exploration of abstract forms. The drawing, likely a preliminary study for a larger sculpture, depicts a simplified, geometric shape that hints at the organic and biomorphic elements that characterized Lipton's mature work. This study for "Loom" reveals the artist's interest in the interplay of light and shadow and how they define volume and form. The drawing's simple lines and hatched shading contribute to its sense of depth and dynamism.
