Paper: Arches - Artwork size: 140 x 93 cm. - In perfect condition - Publisher: Lelong Gallery, Paris. - Cataloging number: 905. Listed on page 154 of Tàpies. Das grafische Werk. Work recorded. 1979-1986. Erker-Verlag, 2002. // Boutonné by Antoni Tàpies, created in 1983, is a large-format etching on Arches paper, measuring 140 x 93 cm. Limited to 50 signed and numbered copies, with additional H.C. and P.A. editions, this artwork showcases Tàpies' exploration of texture, abstraction, and symbolism. The composition centers around a prominent dark shape reminiscent of a side profile or architectural fragment, with button-like dots along one edge. Surrounding this central form, soft ochre and yellow brushstrokes add a sense of organic warmth, contrasting with the rugged central figure. A small rectangular beige patch appears near the bottom, adding a subtle focal point. Published by Lelong Gallery in Paris, Boutonné exemplifies Tàpies' unique ability to create tension between abstraction and familiar forms, inviting viewers to contemplate themes of construction, repair, and imperfection.

What is Art Informel?
Art Informel is a French term referring to the gestural and improvisational techniques common in abstract painting during the 1940s and 50s. It encompasses various styles that dominated these decades, characterized by informal, spontaneous methods. Artists used this term to describe approaches that moved away from traditional structures and embraced more expressive, unstructured techniques.
