Untitled 1961

Emerson Woelffer's 1961 "Untitled" is a stark black and white lithograph showcasing the artist's abstract style. The artwork utilizes a limited palette, playing with the contrasting tones of black and gray to create a sense of depth and dimensionality. The central black mass, rendered with bold, gestural strokes, dominates the composition, while smaller, scattered dark marks on the lighter background add subtle accents and create a sense of movement. Woelffer's work often explores the expressive power of abstract form, and "Untitled" exemplifies this focus, inviting viewers to contemplate the interplay of light and shadow, line and space.
