Tab

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Tab, by artist Isamu Noguchi, features a dark gray and silver metal object with a rough, uneven edge. The object is shaped like a rough rectangle with rounded corners, resembling a shield or plaque. It has a textured surface with a design of swirling silver lines and patterns. Three dark greenish-gray metal spheres are attached to the object, one in the top left, one in the top right, and one at the bottom center. The background of the image is white with a shadow underneath the object.
