Untitled 8 — Fine Art

Untitled 8 - 1979 keeps a steady line crossing a flat colour field. The artist Larry Zox works in hard edge painting, where each edge stays sharp and the paint sits in clear bands. You see a single line laid down with care, stopping at the edge of the sheet.

This fine art print uses a matte paper that holds the line without shine. The frame finish can follow the room, so you can set a light frame on a dark wall or a wood frame beside wooden furniture. The paper stays quiet around the line.

On a bedroom wall, the line reads from the side of the bed. Morning light comes in low, and the flat colour holds its shape without glare. From the doorway you take in the line and the room at the same time.
