Etching; Perfect condition // Lit I by Miquel Barceló, a 1987 etching, portrays a solitary, rock-like form suspended in an abstract space, supported by thin, fragile lines that suggest scaffolding or a frame. The earthy, textured surface of the form, combined with Barceló’s choice of monochromatic tones, evokes a sense of weight and isolation, as if the object is caught in a liminal state. This solitary structure hints at themes of stability versus impermanence, as it appears both anchored and precarious. The etching invites contemplation on the balance between human constructs and nature's inherent ruggedness, a recurring theme in Barceló’s work.

What is abstract expressionism?
Abstract Expressionism is an art movement that emerged in the United States during the 1940s and 1950s. Characterized by large, abstract canvases, the movement emphasized spontaneous, expressive brushwork and the use of color and form to convey emotion rather than represent reality. Artists like Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Willem de Kooning are key figures in this movement. Abstract Expressionism marked a shift in the art world, making New York City a center of the international art scene.
