The Sheet 1960

"The Sheet" is a minimalist painting created in 1960 by Walter Darby Bannard. It showcases a white, blank canvas with a thick black border, a prime example of minimalist art. Bannard's work frequently uses a limited palette and simple geometric forms, challenging viewers to see the painting not just as a representation of something, but as an object itself. His paintings explore the interaction of color, form, and space, leaving the viewer to contemplate the essential elements of art.
