// Antoni Tàpies' Llambrec-7 (1975) is a powerful lithograph that encapsulates the artist's engagement with symbolism, texture, and abstract expression. Dominated by deep, inky black brushstrokes, the piece features a rough, textured background with layered markings that suggest a worn surface or aged wall. At the center, a bold black cross intersects with organic, gestural lines, forming a shape that resembles a human skull. This imagery evokes themes of mortality and introspection, a recurrent focus in Tàpies' work. The rugged texture and intense, monochromatic palette enhance the artwork's emotional depth, inviting viewers to reflect on the passage of time, existence, and decay.

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.
