// Antoni Tàpies' Lletres i gris, a limited edition etching from 1976, is a striking example of his exploration of texture, abstraction, and symbolic language. The composition, dominated by gray tones and rough, gestural markings, features scattered letters such as A, B, and other symbols that seem randomly placed yet intentional, evoking a sense of mystery and coded message. The central abstract form, marked by expressive lines and smudges, brings an almost tactile quality to the piece, characteristic of Tàpies' interest in materiality and the physical presence of art. His work often delves into themes of existentialism and the ineffable, making this etching an invitation to interpret beyond the visible.

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.
