Arcs and Lines is an artists’ book by pioneering conceptual artist Sol LeWitt that demonstrates, through a series of black-and-white ink drawings, all combinations of arcs from four corners, arcs from four sides, straight lines, not-straight lines, and broken lines.
Drawn to the artist book format for its broad accessibility, LeWitt explored notions of seriality and permutation, seeing the page as a rich site for experimental sequences of line, color, and geometric forms.
