The artwork, titled “686 Good Morning City,” was created by Friedensreich Hundertwasser between 1969 and 1970. This piece is a silkscreen print and falls within the art movement of Transautomatism. The genre of the artwork is figurative.
The artwork is characterized by its vibrant color palette and dynamic composition. It prominently features a series of abstractly rendered urban buildings, depicted with an abundance of geometric forms and patterns. The buildings exhibit an array of colors including predominantly reds, greens, and yellows. The facades of the buildings are heavily grid-like, entrancingly irregular, and display a rhythmic play of squares and rectangles. Additionally, circular forms appear to interrupt the grid pattern, evoking a sense of movement and fluidity within the otherwise structured composition. The overall aesthetic of the piece is whimsical yet intricate, conveying a spirited and imaginative interpretation of a cityscape.
