Untitled — Fine Art

Untitled - 1978 by Norman Bluhm shows broad painted strokes laid down with speed and pressure. The mark moves across the sheet in a single sweep, leaving a ridge along the edge where the brush slowed.

Layers of paint overlap in places, so the surface reads as worked rather than flat. The fine art print comes ready to hang, with a metal hanger fitted to the back that goes straight onto a nail or screw.

No separate frame is needed. In a narrow hallway above a coat hook, you see the full sweep of the stroke first, then the small breaks in the paint where the brush lifted.
