About this artwork
Split Level — Michael Goldberg. 1958.
Medium: oil on canvas. Dimensions: Unframed: 203.2 x 177.7 cm (80 x 69 15/16 in.).
Collection record: The Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland. Museum connection according to this source; current display unverified.
Split Level belongs to the House series of paintings Goldberg created during 1957–60, in which densely robust brushwork coalesces into and around a dark rectangular form. Despite its architectural inspiration, the painting is fundamentally a record of the artist’s instinctive feelings rather than a specific image.
