The artwork, titled “Untitled” (Public Opinion), was created by Felix Gonzalez-Torres in 1991. It belongs to the Conceptual Art movement and is classified as an installation piece. The artwork is currently housed in the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City, NY, US.
The artwork presents a mound of metallic objects, which are scattered into a corner of a room, forming a heap. The deliberate placement in a corner and the use of reflective materials create an interplay of light and shadow, inviting viewers to reflect on the thematic and conceptual underpinnings of the piece. The installation exemplifies the artist’s practice of transforming everyday materials into profound artistic expressions, evoking contemplation and discussion among its audience.
