From the portfolio "Una temporada en infierno" (A season in hell) - Portfolio of 10 works illustrating the poem by Arthur Rimbaud - On Arches paper, numbered and signed by Matta - Printing in Paris in 1978 - Published by Oditions Georges Visat. // Roberto Matta's Plusieurs Autres Vies (Several Other Lives) is an etching from 1978, included in the portfolio Una temporada en infierno (A Season in Hell), inspired by the poetry of Arthur Rimbaud. This piece embodies Matta's signature surrealist style, blending abstract forms with expressive colors and swirling lines. Dominated by deep red tones, the composition features dynamic shapes and intricate lines that intersect with enigmatic figures and geometric structures, creating a sense of depth and motion. The scattered triangular elements in the upper portion evoke a festive yet chaotic atmosphere, while the central focus on a mirror-like form reflects Matta’s exploration of alternate realities and existential themes. Printed on Arches paper, the work is part of a limited edition of 100, signed and numbered by the artist. Published by Editions Georges Visat in Paris, this etching measures 67 x 51 cm and continues Matta’s tradition of merging poetry with visual art, transforming philosophical ideas into a vivid, dynamic imagery.

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.
