"Fragment VIII" is a 2001 work by American abstract artist Robert Mangold. The artwork depicts a large black vertical shape bisected by a narrow white space and flanked by two brown, triangular forms. The brown shapes feature thin, curved black lines that seem to suggest the outline of a heart. Minimalism and geometric abstraction are major influences on this work.
