Black Club
1981

A minimalist artwork featuring a vertical composition with three black circles arranged in a triangular formation on a textured, off-white background. The circles appear to be connected by a black vertical line, suggesting a simplistic representation of a plant or flower. The piece has a worn, distressed look with visible markings and scratches, and is signed and dated in the lower right corner.
