Tegning 1972

"Tegning" (Drawing) is a 1972 work by Danish artist Jan Groth (1938-). This minimalist drawing features a simple, expressive line drawing against a blank white background. Groth's work often explored the nature of form and line, utilizing gestural and abstract techniques. The minimal nature of the drawing allows the viewer to focus on the fluidity and weight of the line itself, suggesting a landscape, possibly mountains, with a horizon. The simplicity and starkness of the piece exemplify the minimalist aesthetic that emerged in the 1960s and 1970s.
