Magenta and White Cutouts

1977

A photograph of two side-by-side images depicting abstract compositions with vibrant colors. The left image shows a collage of pink and orange paper with a visible tear, revealing layers beneath. The right image features a dark background with illuminated colored rectangles and a central beam of light, creating a sense of depth and shadow play. Both images are mounted on a white background with the artist's name and date inscribed in the lower right corner.
