The artwork “Revolution 003, N. Atlantic Ocean, Newfoundland” by Hiroshi Sugimoto, created in 1990, belongs to the Minimalism art movement and falls under the genre of photography.
The artwork presents a monochromatic composition characterized by its stark contrast between light and dark elements. Dominating the left half, a profound darkness provides a background that emphasizes the intensity of the illuminated section on the right. The sliver of light introduces a subtle, diffused brightness to the right side, suggesting a sense of understated elegance and minimal detail. The overall effect is a contemplative visual experience which aligns with the Minimalist aesthetic, inviting the viewer to ponder the simplicity and introspection inherent in the scene depicted.
