Untitled [female nude seated in armchair] 1955 - 1967

This untitled work by Richard Diebenkorn, created between 1955 and 1967, is a striking example of abstract expressionism. The artist’s gestural brushstrokes, rendered in black ink, evoke a sense of movement and energy, while the overall composition suggests a seated female figure. Diebenkorn’s abstract style, influenced by both figuration and abstraction, allows for multiple interpretations, drawing the viewer into the depths of the work. The bold lines and shapes are reminiscent of the human form, yet they are also abstract and suggestive, blurring the boundaries between representation and non-representation.
