Untitled

Untitledis essentially a three-dimensional line drawing: A wire composed of 22 segments extends to an immense height, with the remainder coiled stiffly in a spiral on the floor. Eva Hesse described the sculpture as “endless and yet a thin longish substance that is linked together and one feels the infinity to which it could extend.” In the late 1960s, Hesse began to explore the expressive, organic possibilities of abstraction. Using latex and reinforced fiberglass, she created peculiar forms that examined the fundamental properties of sculpture.
