Lithograph, signed by hand, numbered // Chaussures sur chaise by Antoni Tàpies, a lithograph from 1984, showcases his signature blend of abstraction and texture. The artwork features an imprint of fabric with shoes placed on what appears to be a draped chair, partially obscured by bold, black brushstrokes. The rough textures and layered composition evoke a sense of presence and absence, as if capturing the memory of a person through the faint traces left behind. Tàpies' use of black, combined with the soft, almost ghostly imprints, creates a contemplative piece that reflects on themes of identity, the passage of time, and human imprint.

What is Tachisme?
Tachisme is a French abstract painting style that gained popularity between 1940 and 1950, often seen as the European counterpart to Abstract Expressionism. However, there are stylistic differences between the two. Tachisme, which emerged from Art Informel, rejected geometric abstraction in favor of more intuitive and spontaneous expression. It was a reaction against the structured forms of Cubism and is closely related to Informalism. Tachisme emphasizes gestural brushwork, irregular forms, and a focus on the process of painting itself.
