Untitled is a 1998 painting by Ellen Gallagher. It is in the collection of the National Galleries of Scotland in Edinburgh.
The painting is one of many in a series that Gallagher produced consisting of large scale, black paintings that she used to explore her African-American heritage and early stereotypes of African Americans, including minstrel shows. To create Untitled, Gallagher glued paper to a canvas. She used black oil paint on the paper and on top of that, silver paint to create small, human lips in rows.[1]
The piece was acquired by the National Galleries and Scotland in 2008 with money from the Anthony d'Offay Donation and the National Heritage Memorial Fund.[1]
