Etching and carborundum; 75 copies + 25 pa; Perfect condition // En noir et jaune by Antoni Clavé, created in 1969, is a limited edition mixed media print combining etching and carborundum, with a production run of 75 copies plus 25 artist’s proofs. The artwork features a layered composition of deep blacks and textured yellow, forming a mysterious, abstract scene. The upper portion reveals intricate, almost map-like patterns in yellow against a dark background, while the lower section is composed of a dense black area with torn edges, exposing white textured forms beneath. These contrasting elements create a sense of depth and a play between concealment and revelation, suggesting themes of fragmentation and hidden narratives. Clavé’s use of texture and contrast invites viewers into a contemplative exploration of materiality and abstraction.

What is minimalism?
Minimalism is a style in music and visual arts characterized by pared-down designs and simplicity. It began in Western art after World War II, gaining prominence particularly in American visual arts. Minimalism draws heavily on aspects of modernism and is often viewed as a reaction against Abstract Expressionism, as well as a precursor to post-minimal art practices. Prominent minimalist artists include Agnes Martin, Donald Judd, Robert Morris, Frank Stella, and Dan Flavin.
