Etching / Carborundum // Antoni Tàpies' Fora, a mixed media limited edition etching with carborundum from 1976, exemplifies his characteristic use of bold, expressive marks and text. The composition is dominated by large, gestural black brushstrokes interspersed with red accents and rough, scratched inscriptions. Letters and abstract forms overlap and blend, creating a dynamic tension between legibility and abstraction. The layering of materials and textures, especially through the carborundum technique, adds depth and a tactile quality to the surface. Fora reflects Tàpies' exploration of language, materiality, and the interplay between the visible and the hidden, inviting viewers to interpret the cryptic symbols and energy within the artwork.

What is abstract art?
Abstract art uses form, shape, line, and color to create a visual experience without attempting to represent external reality. The composition exists independently of the world's visual references, focusing on expressing ideas and emotions through non-representational means.
