Etching / Carborundum // Antoni Tàpies' Roig i negre I, a limited edition etching with carborundum from 1985, showcases his signature abstract style. The composition features a powerful contrast between black and red, with bold, gestural marks that evoke a sense of movement and tension. White, symbolic forms and cryptic inscriptions float above the dark background, suggesting a layering of meaning and the artist's exploration of the subconscious mind. The use of carborundum adds texture and depth, enhancing the tactile quality of the work. This piece exemplifies Tàpies' fascination with materiality and his ability to transform simple forms into profound visual statements on existence, language, and identity.

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.
