Untitled (Stack of Books) c. 1980

Stella Waitzkin's "Untitled (Stack of Books)" from c. 1980 is a small-scale sculpture, showcasing a stack of five brightly colored, rectangular forms. The artist, known for her abstract and minimal sculptures, often used unconventional materials like wax, as seen in this piece. The interplay of colors, textures, and the simplified form of the "books" creates a captivating visual experience. The work invites viewers to contemplate the essence of the book and the act of reading in a minimalist, abstract style.
