Cy Twombly: Drawings. Catalogue Raisonne Vol. 5, 1970-1971 (Cat. Rais.)

The years 1970-71 were a very prolific period in
which Cy Twombly, influenced by Leonardo da Vinci's
Deluge drawings, created his iconic style: scribbled,
calligraphic, and graffiti-like works on solid fields. In
the late Kirk Varnedoe's words, this--most minimal--
phase of Twombly's oeuvre is characterized by a
"nervous, obsessed energy, yet its trance-like mono -
tony also opens out into a sense of serene, oceanic
dissolution, in a nebular cloud of great depth and infinite
complexity". His drawings of this phase featured
in Vol. V of his Catalogue RaisonnÃ© of Drawings include,
among others, acclaimed extensive series such as
Roman Notes, Study for Treatise on the Veil, and
Beyond (A System of Passing).
