About this work

Overview

David Loewenstein's Untitled, created in 2011, is a spray-painted poster held at The Museum of Modern Art.

Subject & Meaning

The work depicts a stylized iceberg scene with a hand submerged in water, three houses on the iceberg's jagged top, and a banner reading 'ZUCCOTTI' above them. The image combines bold colors and geometric shapes, suggesting a symbolic or metaphorical representation.

Technique & Style

Loewenstein employed spray paint to create the poster, using a palette of bright, contrasting colors against a lighter blue background. The technique yields a graphic, stylized effect.

Context

The inclusion of 'ZUCCOTTI' on the banner may reference Zuccotti Park in New York City, a site associated with the Occupy Wall Street movement, which gained momentum around 2011, the year the work was created.
