Untitled 1960

This unnamed painting was made by Moshe Kupferman with strokes of greens, reds, and blues. Imagine how it came into being, shifting and emerging through trial, error, and intuition. I can sympathize with Kupferman. I can imagine what it might have been like to create this piece. What was he thinking when he made it? The paint is thin, it almost feels like he is searching for something. See that blue mark and how it is placed next to the red, and how they both sit in the green field? It gives me a feeling that he is searching for something, maybe an answer. Artists are always in conversation, exchanging ideas across time, inspiring one another’s creativity. Painting is this amazing embodied expression, it embraces ambiguity and uncertainty, allowing for multiple interpretations and meaning over fixed or definitive readings.
