Edition Information:
“Orbits and Gravity” is a title applied to seven numerically-ordered compositions, dated 2008-2009. (#4 is applied to two different compositions, designated A and B for cataloguing purposes.) One composition, Untitled (Orbits and Gravity #1), has four panels, and another, Untitled (Orbits and Gravity #2), has two panels.

In addition to the composition documented here, the six others in this group are seen in Related Works in the Catalogue.

This composition consists of two superimposed plates. One of the plates also appears in Untitled (Orbits and Gravity #1 (first and fourth panels), Untitled (Orbits and Gravity #2) (right panel), Untitled (Orbits and Gravity #4) (A), and Untitled (Orbits and Gravity #6) (middle and right plates, in center of sheet).
