Fine etching, signed by the artist. // Les Cordes Muettes by Antoni Clavé is a finely detailed etching from 1979, created in a limited edition of 75 with an additional 10 artist’s proofs. The composition is stark and mysterious, featuring what appears to be interconnected, muted cords suspended in abstract forms. A central, darkened panel sits over a pale background, resembling a tangled figure or shadowed outline held together by pins or fastenings, suggesting themes of restraint or silence. Clavé’s use of texture and contrast, along with delicate linework, gives the piece a haunting, meditative quality, inviting viewers to ponder its layered meanings.

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.
