Number 2-07 1961

"Number 2-07" is a vibrant abstract painting by American artist Morris Louis, created in 1961. The piece features two vertical bands of color, each composed of multiple thin, parallel lines, against a white background. These bands are made with liquid acrylic paint that was poured directly onto the canvas, creating a unique and dynamic effect. The vivid colors and the flowing lines create a sense of energy and movement within the minimalist composition. This work is a prime example of Louis's signature "Veil" style, a style that emphasizes the process of paint application and its inherent beauty.
