The artwork titled “Singular Image,” created by Will Barnet in 1964 in the United States, is a notable piece within the Indian Space painting movement. The medium used for this artwork is woodcut on paper, and it measures 81.3 x 56.3 cm. It is currently housed at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City, NY, US.
This 1964 woodcut on paper exemplifies a striking interplay of geometric shapes and muted color tones. Dominated by rectangles and other angular forms predominantly in shades of brown, black, and ochre, the composition is disrupted by vertical and horizontal lines that intersect and divide the space dynamically. The precision of the lines and the arrangement of the segmented color blocks exhibit a sophisticated use of form and space, characteristic of the Indian Space painting movement, which often integrates elements of abstract expressionism with influences from Native American art.
