Image size: 60 X 69 cm. - Paper size: 63 X 90 cm. - Catalogu: Tápies obra gráfica 1979-1986 // Antoni Tàpies' Voilé (1981) is an expressive etching that reflects the artist's fascination with texture and abstract forms. Measuring 63 x 90 cm on paper, with an image size of 60 x 69 cm, this limited edition print features sweeping strokes of pale blue and white, layered over a dark background. The energetic, chaotic lines in red create tension and movement, while a curved black line arcs across the composition, adding a sense of depth. The contrast between the smooth, soft hues and the sharp, linear elements evokes a veil or barrier, aligning with Tàpies' frequent exploration of the physical versus the metaphysical. This work was featured in Tàpies obra gráfica 1979-1986 and highlights his ability to blend materiality with spiritual inquiry.

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.
