// Untitled (Red Sphere in Cityscape) by Robert Whitman, a 1973 silkscreen print, presents an intriguing juxtaposition between a stark urban landscape and a surreal, oversized red sphere. The image captures a snow-covered street scene with tall buildings fading into the background under a grayish sky, creating a quiet, almost desolate atmosphere. In the center, a bold red circle overlays a section of the photograph, adding an unexpected and vibrant element that contrasts with the muted tones of the surroundings. A small yellow splash above the sphere adds an additional layer of abstraction. This print combines realism with abstract intervention, challenging perceptions of reality and space. Whitman’s work often blurs the line between the familiar and the strange, encouraging viewers to question the boundaries of visual interpretation.
