The artwork titled “62-5” was created by the artist Martin Barre in the year 1962. This piece is associated with the Minimalism art movement and falls within the abstract genre of artwork.
The artwork comprises a clean and straightforward composition, featuring four rectangular panels arranged in a somewhat asymmetric fashion. Each panel is predominantly white, serving as a stark canvas that emphasizes the minimalist principles. The most distinguishing feature is the subtle, yet impactful, black line that partially traverses through each panel. The line’s painted texture and organic curvature introduce a dynamic element, contrasting against the serene and unembellished background of the rectangles. The overall aesthetic of the artwork reflects the minimalist ethos of simplicity and precision, where the emphasis is on elements of form and color reduction, evoking a contemplative response from the viewer.
