About “Untitled” (Golden)

“Untitled” (Golden) is an installation by artist Felix Gonzalez-Torres, created in the year 1995. This conceptual artwork is part of the collection housed at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, located in New York City, NY, US. Characteristic of the Conceptual Art movement, Gonzalez-Torres’s creation engages the viewer through both its physical presence and its rich layering of meanings.

The artwork presents itself as a curtain of golden beads cascading from the ceiling to the floor, partitioning the room while also allowing for light and viewers to pass through. The shimmering curtain creates a space that is at once inviting and reflective, its material and form playing with concepts of visibility and interaction. By structuring the piece in a way that encourages participation, the artwork invites contemplation on the part of the spectator, thereby embodying the transformative nature inherent to Gonzalez-Torres’s oeuvre.
