Signed and numbered by the artist. Published by Erker-Presse St. Gallen, with their dry stamp. Catalogue #: 921 Antoni Tàpies’ Neujahrskarte 1984 (1983) is a striking lithograph that exemplifies his fusion of gestural abstraction and symbolic elements. The composition features a finely detailed leaf floating above an expressive black scribble, creating a contrast between organic precision and raw spontaneity. A bold red "X" in the lower right corner serves as a signature motif often found in Tàpies’ work, symbolizing negation, presence, or transformation. The delicate yet powerful balance between controlled form and dynamic movement reflects his exploration of materiality and meaning. Part of an edition of 200 plus artist proofs, catalogued as 921, this work captures Tàpies’ mastery of texture, space, and gestural mark-making.

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.
