Marvin Israel

Untitled black interior
1980s

A monochromatic artwork depicting a dark, forest-like scene with tall, vertical elements resembling trees. A beam of light or a clear path cuts through the center, creating a stark contrast against the shadowy surroundings. The bottom of the image shows a textured, possibly ground-like surface with subtle hints of detail that suggest underbrush or foliage.
