Richard Artschwager's "Basket, Table, Door, Window, Mirror, Rug #33" (1974) is a minimalist drawing on paper that utilizes line and shape to create a geometric composition. The work is a study in form, and the artist's use of simple black ink on white paper creates a stark contrast that highlights the interplay between these forms. This drawing, measuring 29.5 × 19.9 cm, is characteristic of Artschwager’s artistic style and depicts a series of interior elements such as a rug, a basket, and a mirror, abstracted to their basic geometric shapes and suggesting a sense of space and interiority. The work reflects Artschwager's interest in everyday objects and their formal qualities.
