// Antonio Saura's Serie Abierta (1989) is a vibrant lithograph that exemplifies his characteristic abstract and gestural style. The composition is filled with an energetic explosion of color and form, dominated by reds, yellows, greens, and blues. These abstract figures, drawn with bold black outlines and featuring exaggerated eyes, seem to move and swirl across the entire surface, creating a sense of chaotic movement and depth. The dense arrangement of forms and figures suggests a kind of frenetic rhythm, as if each shape is vying for attention within the dynamic, packed space. Saura’s distinctive use of distorted forms and vivid, contrasting colors evokes an emotional intensity, with underlying themes of human experience, identity, and perhaps a chaotic inner world. The piece is both playful and intense, inviting the viewer to engage with its complexity.

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.
