Fenestral Abstraction c. 1951

"Fenestral Abstraction" is a black and white print created by American artist Robert Joseph Massey in 1951. The print features a shadowy figure with windows in their head. The stark contrast of light and dark contributes to a sense of mystery and introspection within the work. The abstract nature of the piece engages viewers to contemplate the meaning behind the windows and their placement in the figure’s head. This graphic work explores themes of perception, the inner world, and the relationship between the physical and the abstract.
