The Moment

Barnett Newman, Knickerbocker Machine & Foundry, Multiples, Inc. · 1966 · color screenprint on plexiglas ·  Accession ID  2015.19.3397

A bright white strip and a pair of white lines span the height of this otherwise cream-white, vertical, abstract painting. The wider white strip is along the left side of the canvas, and the pair of thinner lines are near each other about three-quarters of the way across from the left. The artist signed and dated the painting in the lower right corner in white, “Barnett Newman 1965.”

Two narrow white vertical lines separate the otherwise ink-black surface of this vertical, abstract painting. One white line runs up the left edge, and the other slices through the black about two-thirds of the way across the canvas. The artist signed and dated the painting in the lower left corner of the white strip in black paint: “Barnett Newman 1966.”

Thirteenth Station

Barnett Newman · 1965/1966 · acrylic on canvas ·  Accession ID  1986.65.13

Two bright white strips flank a central, darker cream-white area in this vertical, abstract painting. The bright white strips line the left and right edges. To the left, the white strip is bounded by a stripe of the cream-colored canvas. Then a sliver of the brighter white paint is feathered along the right edge of that bare stripe. The artist signed and dated the lower left corner with white paint, “Barnett Newman 1965.”
Barnett Newman, Tenth Station, 1965, Magna on canvas, Robert and Jane Meyerhoff Collection, 1986.65.10

Tenth Station

Barnett Newman · 1965 · Magna on canvas ·  Accession ID  1986.65.10

Wide and narrow strips of cream white and charcoal gray span the height of this vertical, abstract painting. The left three-quarters of the composition is dark gray except for a narrow white line near the left edge. The gray field ends to the right with a precise, vertical edge. A narrow white line follows, and then a thin blade of gray is brushed shallowly into the white, rightmost quarter of the composition. The artist signed the painting in the lower right corner, “Barnett Newman 1965.”

Twelfth Station

Barnett Newman · 1965 · acrylic on canvas ·  Accession ID  1986.65.12

A white canvas is alleviated only by a slightly darker strip of white along the left edge in this vertical, abstract painting. The artist signed and dated the work in that darker white paint near the lower left corner, “Barnett Newman 1966.”
