Unique piece in mixed media on paper, hand-signed by the artist. Registered in the Tapies archives (comes with photo-certificate) // Libertad by Antoni Tàpies is a powerful mixed media artwork on paper, created with expressive brushstrokes and layered textual elements. The word Libertad (Freedom) is prominently inscribed at the top, setting a defiant tone. A large, bold “R” dominates the center, overlaid with rough black and red strokes, suggesting barriers or resistance. Beneath, phrases in Spanish like “tu eres mi cuerpo” (you are my body) and “y yo tu compañero” (and I your companion) evoke a sense of unity and solidarity. Tàpies’ use of raw textures and spontaneous script embodies a spirit of resistance and emotional intensity, resonating with themes of political struggle. This unique piece is hand-signed by the artist and registered in the Tàpies archives.

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.
