The artwork, titled “Untitled [MR9],” was created by the artist David Hare in 1952. It belongs to the Abstract Expressionism movement and is categorized under the genre of sculpture.
The artwork is composed of two distinct metallic elements. The upper section features a radial arrangement reminiscent of a sunburst, with evenly spaced, elongated beams converging at a central circular aperture. Below, a curved, crescent-like structure with intricate texturing and variation in thickness extends horizontally, giving the impression of organic, flowing movement. The piece combines geometric precision with more fluid, naturalistic forms, embodying the abstract and expressive qualities characteristic of Abstract Expressionist sculpture. The overall composition evokes a sense of dynamic balance and ethereal abstraction.
