Untitled Free Structures — Fine Art

Untitled Free Structures - 1962 by Charlotte Posenenske shows a set of straight built forms arranged in a clear row. The shapes sit against a plain ground and keep their own space from one another. The flat tones let each structure read without extra detail.

A fine art print uses a frame in white, wood, dark wood or black. The frame gives the picture a clear edge on the wall and sets the built forms apart from the room around them.

In a hallway with a low ceiling, the row of forms runs along the wall and you notice the hard lines first. On a desk beside books, the dark edges line up with the shelf below.
