Titled “Untitled,” this artwork by Susan Rothenberg, created in 1982, belongs to the Neo-Expressionism movement and genre of abstract art.
The artwork predominantly features an abstract human figure rendered in dark, thick strokes against a light background. The figure appears to be in motion or in the process of transformation, suggested by the multiple overlapping lines and varying degrees of opacity in the strokes. The composition is minimalist, yet the vigorous line work imbues the piece with a sense of dynamic energy and emotional intensity. The minimalist approach and the choice of abstract expression highlight Rothenberg’s ability to evoke strong imagery and feeling through simplicity and motion.
