About this work

Overview

Karin Sander's Untitled, created in 1996, is a minimalist drawing held at The Museum of Modern Art. It consists of staples on paper, arranged in a simple yet rhythmic pattern.

Technique & Style

The artwork features a series of short, horizontal lines made from evenly spaced staples of uniform length. Each line is slightly offset from the one above it, creating a sense of texture against a plain white background.

Subject & Meaning

The simplicity of the composition invites contemplation on the materiality of the staples and their arrangement, exploring the relationship between form and space.
