// Antoni Tàpies' etching Orella (1971) is a minimalist exploration of human perception, symbolized through a prominent ear in the center of the composition. A dotted, broken line stretches horizontally across the artwork, connecting a dark, scribbled form on the left to an isolated mark on the right. The ear, rendered with subtle texture, seems to absorb and interpret this ambiguous line, suggesting themes of listening, interpretation, and communication. The juxtaposition of the chaotic scribble with the ear may symbolize the human capacity to find meaning within disorder. Tàpies' work often invites contemplation on everyday objects as symbols, transforming the ear into a profound element of sensory experience and awareness.

What is Art Informel?
Art Informel is a French term referring to the gestural and improvisational techniques common in abstract painting during the 1940s and 50s. It encompasses various styles that dominated these decades, characterized by informal, spontaneous methods. Artists used this term to describe approaches that moved away from traditional structures and embraced more expressive, unstructured techniques.
