Hand-coloured lithograph. // Antoni Tàpies’ Nocturn matinal - 4 (1970) is a hand-colored lithograph that captures the artist's exploration of texture, abstraction, and symbolism. Created with a palette of soft greys and bold red lines intersecting at the center, the composition suggests a sense of balance and tension. A dynamic, swirling form occupies the center, reminiscent of a vortex or eye, with expressive black lines adding an organic and gestural quality. The red markings evoke the idea of direction or coordinates, subtly guiding the viewer’s gaze toward the core of the artwork. Tàpies, a prominent figure in Spanish art, often incorporated earthy textures and spiritual undertones, inviting introspection and contemplation on form, emptiness, and space.

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.
