// Graphismes et deux croix by Antoni Tàpies, created in 1972, is an abstract etching that exemplifies the artist’s exploration of texture, symbols, and gestural marks. The composition is dense with chaotic black lines, scratches, and crosshatchings, evoking a sense of intense energy or movement. Amidst this web of lines, two bold, black crosses stand out, adding a sense of weight and grounding to the frenetic background. The work’s raw, tactile quality is characteristic of Tàpies’ interest in materiality and symbolism, often interpreted as representations of spirituality, existential reflection, or resistance. This piece invites contemplation on the contrast between structure and disorder, presence and absence.

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.
