Cy Twombly
“Twombly has descended from the heights of a mature realized art to the elemental beginnings. After the capitulation of a vast style, Twombly has learned to write again” – Robert Pincus-Witten, art critic and curator
1969
Cy Twombly's 1969 work combines oil and wax crayon on paper to create gestural marks and abstract compositions that return to elemental artistic expression. The piece reflects the artist's mature period of deconstructive abstraction and spontaneous mark-making.
