The artwork, titled “Untitled (Yellow, Red, and Black Circles for James Baldwin, Istanbul),” was created by the artist Beauford Delaney in 1966. This piece belongs to the Abstract Art movement and is categorized within the abstract genre.
The artwork features a vibrant composition dominated by circular forms. At its core, interlocking circles in bold hues of yellow, red, and black create a dynamic visual rhythm. The circles are accentuated by thick, expressive brushstrokes, with additional smaller circular shapes clustered within the overall structure. The interplay of these colors and shapes evokes a sense of movement and complexity, inviting viewers to delve into its deeper connotations and emotional resonance. The dedication to James Baldwin, a notable figure, adds a layer of personal and historical significance to this abstract creation.
