The artwork titled “Post Calligraphic Drawing” was created by Brice Marden in 1998 and belongs to the Abstract Expressionism movement. It is an abstract genre piece that illustrates the artist’s unique approach to expressive and gestural forms.
In this composition, the viewer is presented with a complex interplay of intertwining lines and shapes set against a muted green background. The drawing appears spontaneous yet controlled, with dark, sinuous lines dancing across the surface, intersecting and overlapping in an intricate web of calligraphic movements. The use of varying line thickness adds depth and dimension to the piece, while occasional white streaks interspersed among the darker lines contribute to a sense of dynamism and movement. This artwork exemplifies Marden’s mastery in creating visually engaging compositions that invite the viewer to explore the harmonious yet chaotic interplay of form and space.
