// Réflexions by Robert Barry is a minimalist lithograph that invites quiet contemplation. Created in 1991 and produced in a limited edition of 250, the artwork is subtle, with faint words scattered across a soft, almost blank background. The words—such as WONDER, BEYOND, and ALMOST—are isolated, encouraging viewers to engage in introspective thought. Barry's approach emphasizes the power of language and space, inviting interpretation and reflection. This piece evokes a meditative state, where simplicity enhances the potential for deeper meaning, aligning with Barry's conceptual focus on language as a tool for engaging the mind.

What is Lettrism?
Lettrism is an art form that uses letters, words, and symbols to create artwork. The movement was established in Paris in the 1940s and later gained popularity in the 1950s in America. Lettrisme is the French spelling of the movement's name, derived from the French word for letter.
