[no title] 2000

Curator: At first glance, the darkness seems to pull you in. Editor: Indeed. This is an untitled print by Anish Kapoor, part of the Tate collection. The support measures 430 by 380 millimeters. Curator: The textures of the ochre background, combined with the velvety black, suggest a deep and considered labor process, perhaps a comment on the physical act of art-making itself. Editor: I'd suggest the void presents a reflection of Kapoor's larger installations and the public's engagement with constructed spaces and institutional contexts that lend authority to these works. Curator: Perhaps it's a dialogue between the hand of the artist and the art market's need for production. Editor: Ultimately, these small prints allow for wider access to Kapoor's aesthetic, democratizing art consumption. Curator: A fascinating interplay of intent and material. Editor: Yes, something for us to consider further.
