This drawing, "Tracing for Changes and Disappearances #32 (9 of 11)" from 1982 by John Cage (1912-1992), is a minimalist work on paper. Using a grid pattern, Cage explores the concept of change and disappearance through delicate pencil lines and numerical notations. The work is a visual representation of Cage's philosophical approach to music and art, emphasizing chance and randomness over traditional composition.
