Antoni Tapies – Cordill, 1971 – Etching
Antoni Tàpies' Cordill (1971) is an etching that exemplifies his exploration of texture, symbolism, and abstraction. This limited edition print features a single, looping cord-like form centered on a stark, minimalistic background, evoking a sense of raw materiality and simplicity. Below the cord, the letters A and B are inscribed on opposite ends, connected by a series of dots, suggesting a path or journey between two points. Tàpies often integrated found materials and everyday objects into his works, transforming them into symbols of introspection and spirituality. The restrained palette and delicate line work underscore the meditative quality of the piece, inviting viewers to contemplate the connection between seemingly ordinary elements and larger existential ideas.

Antoni Tàpies (Spain, 1923–2012) was a Catalan painter, sculptor, and art theorist renowned for his abstract works that incorporated unconventional materials like sand, marble dust, and found objects. A leading figure in Art Informel, his textured surfaces and symbolic motifs explored themes of materiality and spirituality. Tàpies co-founded the avant-garde group Dau al Set and received numerous accolades, including the Golden Lion at the Venice Biennale.

What is matter painting?
Artwork by Bram Bogart

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.
