Did you know a minimalist art exhibition was once so controversial that it cost a major museum curator her job?

In 1975, Richard Tuttle's subtle show at the Whitney Museum was famously panned by a prominent critic who declared that less had never been as less as this. The public outrage was so intense that the curator was actually forced to resign.

Yet today, Tuttle is widely celebrated as a postminimalist visionary who radically challenged the boundaries of contemporary art. This 1995 piece, titled Music, perfectly captures his quiet, unassuming genius. It is a delicate, hand-burnished woodcut print created at the USF Graphicstudio that invites you to feel the art physically rather than just analyze it.

In a loud and constantly busy world, we all need a moment of pure, quiet reflection. Tuttle's beautiful exploration of simple lines and muted earth tones creates the perfect meditative focal point to bring peace to your home office or bedroom.
