Lithograph on Guarro paper - Signed and numbered in pencil - Literature : Galfetti 732 // Antoni Tàpies’ Poligrafa XV Anys (1980) is a lithograph on Guarro paper, combining elements of texture, abstraction, and gestural marks characteristic of the artist’s style. The composition centers around a dense, rectangular black form, layered with chaotic, calligraphic strokes that impart a sense of raw energy and movement. Above this, a bold, brush-like stroke of deep red arcs over the structure, introducing a dramatic contrast against the earthy background. Tàpies’ work often reflects his interest in the materiality of art and the expressive potential of marks and symbols, evoking themes of mystery and introspection. Signed and numbered, this piece exemplifies Tàpies’ influence in post-war Spanish art.

What is Tachisme?
Tachisme is a French abstract painting style that gained popularity between 1940 and 1950, often seen as the European counterpart to Abstract Expressionism. However, there are stylistic differences between the two. Tachisme, which emerged from Art Informel, rejected geometric abstraction in favor of more intuitive and spontaneous expression. It was a reaction against the structured forms of Cubism and is closely related to Informalism. Tachisme emphasizes gestural brushwork, irregular forms, and a focus on the process of painting itself.
