Etching and carborundum; Perfect condition // Perfil by Antoni Tàpies, created in 1987, is a mixed-media piece that combines etching and carborundum. Limited to 99 signed copies, this artwork features a dynamic interplay of bold black lines, brushstrokes, and abstract forms set against a textured, shadowed background that fades to light at the center. The composition includes gestural marks and scribbles, along with a small golden-brown shape that adds a subtle focal point amidst the dark, atmospheric palette. The central shapes appear almost like figures or silhouettes, blending abstract expression with a hint of figuration. Tàpies' use of shadowing and layered textures enhances the piece’s depth, inviting viewers to explore themes of presence and absence, as well as the power of form in space.

What is Gestural?
Gestural art is a term that describes painting with freely sweeping brushstrokes. The primary goal of gestural art is to allow the artist to physically express emotional impulses. The varied, yet expressive paint marks are intended to convey the artist's inner thoughts and emotions, which viewers are believed to understand through the dynamic and spontaneous application of paint.
