Listed on page 78 of Tàpies. graphic work.1979-1986. Erker-Verlag, 2002. // Glissement 1 by Antoni Tàpies, created in 1981, is a mixed-media print that combines etching and carborundum, highlighting Tàpies' dedication to texture and abstract symbolism. Limited to 75 signed and numbered copies, this artwork on Arches paper presents a rough, scratched surface where black, gestural strokes form abstract shapes and lines. A notable black cross appears in the lower left corner, partially intersected by a soft beige band, adding a subtle contrast to the monochromatic scheme. The work’s title, Glissement (meaning slippage in French), suggests movement or displacement, an idea reinforced by the diagonal lines that seem to pull the forms across the surface. This piece, published by Lelong Gallery in Paris, is listed in Tàpies’ catalog raisonné, marking its significance within his exploration of materiality and visual language.

What is automatism?
Automatism refers to a technique in the creative process that accesses material from the unconscious or subconscious mind. It is based on Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalytic method of free association. Artists value this process for its ability to inspire creative thought and spontaneous creation.
