About Untitled

The artwork titled “Untitled” by Jannis Kounellis, created in 1979, belongs to the Post-Minimalism art movement and falls under the genre of installation art.

The artwork features a minimalist line drawing on the walls of a room, depicting a cityscape with simplistic, geometric buildings. Suspended on the wall are two dark birds in flight, each pierced by an arrow, adding a three-dimensional element to the scene. To the right of the cityscape, there are a series of four dark, abstract square canvases hung vertically, contrasting with the lightness of the line drawing. The use of mixed media and the interplay between two-dimensional and three-dimensional elements is characteristic of Kounellis’s approach to Post-Minimalism, inviting viewers to contemplate the boundaries between different art forms and the spatial dynamics of the installation.
