“Oh, it’s just smudgy squares.” - Jane.
There’s also this explanation.
Every time this painting finds its way into a shot on Mad Men, I’m reminded of the six or seven minutes the man and I spent staring at a similar one (I think by the same artist, but I don’t remember for sure) at the SFMoMa that time he took me there. It was one of my favorite things I saw that day, and the way he talked about it is probably why I’m so hung up on him now—his art nerdery really caught me off guard for some reason and it was kind of amazing to watch and listen to.
Anyway.
