The artwork titled “Winter (Black Curve),” created by Ellsworth Kelly in 1984, is part of the Pop Art movement. This figurative piece is also a component of the “Seasons” series by Kelly.
In the artwork, a black curved shape dominates the composition, creating a striking contrast against a light background. The simplicity and clarity with which the black curve is rendered exemplify the minimalist approach often associated with Pop Art. The juxtaposition of the curved form against the serene, almost empty background evokes a sense of calm and introspection. The artwork’s balance of form and space invites viewers to contemplate the interplay of shapes and the emotive qualities conveyed by such stark simplicity.
