The artwork, titled “Die,” was created by the artist Tony Smith in 1968. This piece belongs to the Minimalism art movement and falls under the genre of sculpture.
The artwork is a large, imposing cube standing on a wooden floor, characterized by its simplicity and monumental form. The surfaces of the cube are smooth and feature no embellishments or textures, adhering to the principles of Minimalism which emphasize purity of form and absence of excessive ornamentation. The cube’s presence in the space creates a sense of solidity and permanence, inviting viewers to engage with it on a purely spatial and geometric level.
