SUB_39b_23327

Author: Antoni Tàpies ((Barcelona, 13/12/1923 - 06/02/2012). Title: Nocturn Matinal 9 - Nocturn Matinal Series. Description: H.C. etching on Guarro paper from a run of 100 copies made in 1970 by the artist Antoni Tàpies. Unframed dimensions 62.5x77 cm. Certificate of authenticity included. Artwork in good condition. Painter, sculptor and art theorist. He was one of the main exponents of Informalism on a global scale and is considered one of the most outstanding Spanish artists of the 20th century. The Artwork of this illustrious Catalan is exhibited at the study and conservation center at the Antoni Tàpies Museum in Barcelona. Self-taught, Tàpies developed his own style within the avant-garde art of the 20th century, in which tradition and innovation were combined within an abstract style, but full of symbolism, giving great importance to the material substrate of the Artwork. It is worth highlighting the marked spiritual sense given by the artist to his Artwork, where the material support transcends its state by signifying a profound analysis of the human condition. Tàpies' Artwork has had great value on both the national and international scene. It has been exhibited in the most prestigious museums in the world. Throughout his career he has received numerous awards and distinctions such as entry into the academies of fine arts in Berlin, Vienna and Stockholm; Ciutat de Barcelona prize, 1979; doctorate from the Royal College of Art, London, 1981; Wolf prize, 1982; Rembrandt prize, 1983; Gold Medal of the Generalitat, 1983; Grand Prize for Painting in France, 1984; Doctor honoris causa from the universities of Barcelona and the Balearic Islands, 1988. In 1971 Antoni Tàpies held his first exhibition.

  • Muz-Martínez: "Threshold of Presence" - Series: Thresholds" (2026)

    Threshold of Presence Series: Thresholds 100x73 Muz-Martínez In Threshold of Presence, Muz-Martínez places us in that suspended instant between the visible and the intangible, where the figure seems to emerge and dissolve simultaneously. The Artwork is constructed from a constant tension between matter and emptiness, between gesture and silence. The face, barely suggested, does not seek to define itself but rather to be implied, as if it belonged to a liminal space where identity has not yet fully revealed itself. The layers of color, applied with a restrained yet firm gestural style, generate an emotional depth that transcends the purely formal. The composition breathes through subtle contrasts and glazes that invite the viewer to approach, to complete the image from their own perception. There is no closed narrative, but an open experience: a journey towards the essential. This Artwork is part of the Thresholds series, where the artist investigates the limits between the figurative and the abstract, proposing spaces for reflection in which presence is not affirmed, but rather intuited.
