Blind Time IV (Drawing with Davidson) 1991

Robert Morris's "Blind Time IV (Drawing with Davidson)," a striking black and white charcoal drawing from 1991, embodies the minimalist aesthetic of the artist's later work. The piece features two large, amorphous black forms against a stark white background. These forms are made up of countless individual charcoal strokes, suggesting both the hand of the artist and the inherent limitations of perception. Morris titled this work "Blind Time" to highlight the viewer's inability to fully grasp the process of its creation, as well as to emphasize the abstract nature of the artwork. The piece is a testament to the artist's exploration of form, space, and the viewer's experience of abstract art.
