Etching; 143 signed and numbered copies - Paper: Guarro especial - Image size: 50 x 66 cm; Artwork size: 56 x 76 cm. - Polychrome etching with flocking. - Cataloging number: 891. Listed on page 143 of Tàpies. graphic work. 1979-1986. Erker-Verlag, 2002. // Aparicions 5 by Antoni Tàpies, created in 1982, is an etching that reflects Tàpies' signature abstract and textural style. This piece, rendered on Guarro paper with polychrome etching and flocking, features two pale, organic shapes against a muted grey-blue background. Delicate, almost translucent lines and shapes intersect with rough white strokes and subtle black accents, creating an atmospheric, almost ethereal scene. The composition has an unfinished, raw quality that invites viewers to contemplate the presence and transformation of forms in space. Tàpies' work often suggests themes of mystery and introspection, with Aparicions 5 evoking a sense of subtle emergence or apparition.

What is matter painting?
Matter painting is a technique that involves blending thick impasto paints with materials like cement, mud, sand, or shells. The term first emerged in the 1950s to describe the works of Belgian and Dutch painters who explored the physical properties of painting materials and the different ways paint could be manipulated. This approach emphasizes texture and the tactile qualities of the surface, creating a sculptural effect on the canvas.
