Etching, aquatint and cuts - 23 x 16 cm - hand Signed, Fontana - Edition of 100 // This etching and aquatint with cuts by Lucio Fontana is a compact yet profound work measuring 23 x 16 cm. Part of the artist’s iconic 'Concetto Spaziale' series, it features a delicate pink oval at the center, framed by swirling, hand-drawn lines etched into the surface. The central feature is a vertical cut that pierces through the composition, exemplifying Fontana’s revolutionary approach to space and material. The precise cut disrupts the flatness of the paper, creating a dialogue between two and three dimensions, a hallmark of his Spatialism philosophy. This hand-signed piece is from a limited edition of 100, highlighting Fontana’s mastery in combining conceptual rigor with minimalist elegance.

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.
