“Untitled #36,” created by Robert Ryman in 1963, aligns with the Minimalism art movement and belongs to the abstract genre. The artwork features a piece of burlap stretched loosely, with strings dangling from its edges. At the center, a white textured formation is predominant, surrounded by splashes of red, yellow, and hints of gray. This central cluster appears as an unstructured accumulation of paint, which contrasts vividly against the rough and untreated surface of the burlap. The composition’s simplicity and the raw materials used are reflective of Ryman’s minimalist approach, focusing on the pure experience of the materials and the act of painting itself.
