Christopher Wool’s Untitled 1998 painting is both tucked away in collections and on display. Its smeared and drippy composition might be overlooked until its value is realized. Wool’s work is subversive in bringing graffiti, a traditionally illicit practice of vandalism, into the museum. He investigates and pushes the boundaries of what abstract art can be.
