Engraving and aquatint, printed in pink. Hand signed lower right, Published by 2RC Edizioni d'Arte, Rome. // Nudo rosa (1967) is one of Lucio Fontana's most distinctive graphic works, executed in engraving and aquatint and printed in a saturated, luminous pink. The image presents a figure in dissolution: line and tone merge into a shimmering chromatic field that simultaneously defines and dismantles form. Published by 2RC Edizioni d'Arte in Rome, the print reflects Fontana's late engagement with the figure, now filtered through the spatial and chromatic investigations that defined his Spatialist practice. The choice of pink is deliberate and unsettling -- warmly sensual yet formally abrasive, it challenges conventions of both figurative and abstract printmaking. Hand signed lower right, Nudo rosa is a rare and significant work in which Fontana operates at the precise intersection of the body and pure colour.

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.
