Synthetic polymer paint, ink and pencil on paper, 56 x 67.2 (sheet)

State Library of Victoria [MS 14217/1/1718]

Solid grey square with horizontal brush-strokes. One of a group of related works (see e.g. Untitled [A182] (c.1974-76) [W/P]).

The horizontal brush-strokes seem to be a gestural equivalent for the sprayed lines in white canvases such as Fast-lid 1974, and related drawings.

= ‘White’ W/P cat.no.211 [previous no.193]
