Composition VIII

Conrad Marca-Relli's Composition XIV etching with abstract brown and black forms on a light background, resembling fabric textures.

Etching and aquatint on Gvarro paper // Composition XIV by Conrad Marca-Relli, a 1977 etching and aquatint, uses abstract forms and earthy tones to create a striking interplay between shape and texture. The composition features bold, irregular shapes in dark brown and black against a lighter background, with some elements resembling cutouts or fragments. The textured quality of the dark areas, printed on Gvarro paper, suggests the roughness of burlap or fabric, adding depth and tactile interest to the piece. Marca-Relli’s approach reflects his fascination with collage and abstraction, capturing a sense of movement and balance within the organic, almost sculptural forms.

What is Surrealism?

Surrealism began in the 1920s as an art and literary movement with the goal of revealing the unconscious mind and unleashing the imagination by exploring unusual and dream-like imagery. Influenced by Sigmund Freud’s theories of psychoanalysis, Surrealist artists and writers sought to bring the unconscious into rational life, blurring the lines between reality and dreams. The movement aimed to challenge conventional perceptions and express the irrational aspects of the human experience.
