Untitled (from Così Fan Tutte) #2

Roberto Matta's untitled 1970 etching from Così Fan Tutte, abstract figures in pink against blue-green background with dark, rock-like shapes.

// This untitled etching and aquatint from Roberto Matta’s Così Fan Tutte series, created in 1970, immerses the viewer in a surreal, dreamlike world. Limited to just 27 prints, the composition features elongated, abstract figures rendered in shades of pink and beige, situated in a mysterious, textured landscape of dark, rock-like forms. The background transitions from muted blue to green, adding a depth and atmospheric quality that enhances the piece’s enigmatic mood. The figures, with their contorted and intertwined bodies, appear to interact in a playful yet otherworldly manner, hovering or balancing in space as if defying gravity. Matta’s technique of blending color and texture gives the scene a sense of fluidity, as if capturing a moment within a shifting, psychological landscape. This artwork exemplifies Matta’s exploration of subconscious themes, drawing the viewer into an abstract realm where form and movement evoke introspective contemplation.

What is automatism?

Automatism refers to a technique in the creative process that accesses material from the unconscious or subconscious mind. It is based on Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalytic method of free association. Artists value this process for its ability to inspire creative thought and spontaneous creation.
