A festményről
Untitled is a 1999 painting by Ellen Gallagher. It is in the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago in Chicago, Illinois in the United States.
Keeping in the tradition of Gallagher's large-scale paintings, Untitled consists of black rubber which is texturized with paper on canvas. On the lower right of the painting, Gallagher used enamel and rubber to depict an African person, that she describes as a "fantasy." The viewer sees the back of the African person's head, with a mohawk hairstyle, tattoos and piercings.
The painting was acquired by the Art Institute of Chicago in 2004.
A múzeum szavaival
Ellen Gallagher's large-scale works use repetitive forms and both common and unorthodox materials to create subtly layered surfaces. Her elaborate and labor-intensive method of building figures and forms presents loaded imagery—often uncomfortable racial signifiers—in ways that disrupt predictable readings. In Untitled Gallagher built up patterns melded out of rubber to articulate what she refers to as a fantasy rendering of an African, delineated by a system of elegant yet abbreviated signs indicating hair, skin, tattoos, and jewelry.
