// Untitled (Doors) by Robert Therrien is a minimalist aquatint print from 1996, showcasing Therrien's focus on simple forms and the subtle transformation of everyday objects. The composition features two red, rectangular shapes that resemble abstract doors, arranged in a staggered alignment against a white background. The stark color contrast and geometric simplicity create a sense of depth and balance, inviting viewers to engage with the form's architectural implications. Therrien’s work often blurs the line between abstraction and recognizable shapes, and in Untitled (Doors), he reduces the concept of a door to its most basic, symbolic representation. This piece, part of a limited edition of 25 with 10 artist proofs, exemplifies his refined approach to abstraction and form.

What is pop-art?
Pop Art is an art movement that began in Britain in 1955 and in the late 1950s in the U.S. It challenged traditional fine arts by incorporating imagery from popular culture, such as news, advertising, and comic books. Pop Art often isolates and recontextualizes materials, combining them with unrelated elements. The movement is more about the attitudes and ideas that inspired it than the specific art itself. Pop Art is seen as a reaction against the dominant ideas of Abstract Expressionism, bringing everyday consumer culture into the realm of fine art.
