Untitled
Gabriel Kohn
American, 1910–1975
1963
A lithograph in which Gabriel Kohn arranges a grid of small, improvisational panel drawings to explore variations of shape, mark, and rhythmic repetition.
You first notice an even field of loose rectangular ‘cells,’ each sketched with spare ovals, dots, looping lines and a dense horizontal hatch that makes the sheet feel like a page of rapid, intentional experiments.
It demonstrates a mid‑20th‑century interest in translating the immediacy of drawing into print—using serial repetition and pared‑down gestures to test composition, rhythm, and variation across multiple studies.
