Serigraph; perfect condition // Karel Appel's Obra gráfica, a serigraph from 1974, radiates the artist's signature boldness and expressive style. Featuring a figure with exaggerated, abstracted features, the composition combines vibrant reds, blues, yellows, and whites against a striking blue background. The figure holds what appears to be a guitar or similar instrument, blending human and object forms in Appel’s signature spontaneous, almost childlike style. Thick, black outlines give structure to the flowing shapes, enhancing the sense of movement and energy. This work captures Appel's belief in the primal power of color and form, inviting viewers to experience raw emotion and playfulness.

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.
