Short Straight Lines, Not Touching, Drawn at Random and Evenly Distributed Over the Area 1972

"Short Straight Lines, Not Touching, Drawn at Random and Evenly Distributed Over the Area" is a 1972 drawing by the American artist Sol LeWitt. The work is a Minimalist piece that uses the principle of randomness and repetition to create a unique visual experience. This simple, yet striking concept, embodies the core principles of Conceptual Art and Minimalism, emphasizing process, structure, and concept over traditional notions of artistic expression. The work is characterized by its use of a simple geometric form (straight lines) and its overall minimalist aesthetic, making it a prime example of LeWitt’s groundbreaking contribution to modern art.
