Etching with aquatint and carborundum on handmade paper // Antoni Tàpies’ 70 is a limited edition print from 1973, created using a combination of etching, aquatint, and carborundum on handmade paper. This mixed-media piece embodies Tàpies’ signature exploration of texture, materiality, and abstraction. The work centers on a rugged, square form with a black, roughened texture and the number “70” prominently displayed. White markings cut across the surface, suggesting movement or a symbolic boundary. Tàpies' use of unconventional materials, such as carborundum, imbues the piece with a tactile, almost sculptural quality, inviting viewers to consider the physical and symbolic weight of the depicted forms.

What is the Zero Movement?
ZERO was an art movement founded by Otto Piene and Heinz Mack, aiming to develop into a large international and cross-border movement. The name ZERO originated from a magazine founded by Heinz Mack in 1957, which became a platform for the group's ideas. The magazine was published for several years before ceasing in 1967. The ZERO movement sought to create a new beginning in art, emphasizing light, space, and movement, and became influential in post-war European art.
