About Tomorrow's Apples (5 in White)

The artwork titled “Tomorrow’s Apples (5 in White)” is a creation by Eva Hesse, completed in 1965. It is composed using a variety of materials, including enamel, gouache, board, and mixed media, and falls under the Post-Minimalism art movement. The piece belongs to the abstract genre and is part of the collection at Tate Modern in London, UK.

In the artwork, viewers are presented with five tubular, snake-like forms emerging from a textured, white backdrop. Each form is distinctively wrapped in different hues—ranging from blue and pink to yellow—invoking a sense of rhythm and movement. The surface onto which these elements are attached presents a gently irregular texture, emphasizing the organic, almost visceral quality. The interplay of color and texture in the piece evokes an intriguing combination of industrial and organic elements, characteristic of Hesse’s approach to Post-Minimalism.
