Fine silkscreen, hand signed by the artist. // Atal by Antonio Saura, created in 1983, is a limited edition silkscreen that exemplifies the artist’s raw and expressive style. The composition is dominated by an abstract, layered form, featuring bold strokes and splatters in shades of black, gray, and muted olive green. This work displays Saura’s characteristic approach to figuration, with distorted, almost grotesque shapes that suggest a haunting, ambiguous face or mask. The intense layering and dynamic brushwork evoke a sense of agitation and introspection, reflecting Saura’s fascination with psychological depth and human complexity. Known for his association with European Informalism, Saura’s art often challenges traditional portraiture, merging abstraction with visceral emotion to produce powerful, unsettling imagery.

What is late modernism?
Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
