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 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.
