Antoni Tàpies (1923 Barcelona - 2012 ibid) (F)
Sheet No. 10 from 'Suite', aquatint etching in colours on wove, 1980, 63.5 cm x 89.5 cm sheet size, signed, inscribed e.a., from an edition of 90, mounted Literature: Cat. rais. Galfetti/Homs 776 Antoni Tàpies was born on 13th December 1923 in Barcelona and was one of the most important artists, as well as the most important representatives of the Informel movement, in Spain. The painter, graphic artist and sculptor showed an interest in art from an early age, but only devoted himself fully to painting after dropping out of his law studies in 1946. The self-taught artist first followed the works of Vincent van Gogh and Pablo Picasso. Later he increasingly oriented himself towards the surrealist works of Joan Miró, Paul Klee and Max Ernst. In 1948 he co-founded the group ''Dau al Set''. After his Paris fellowship in 1950, Tàpies began to explore the structures of different materials and to limit his painterly means of expression to the essential. In 1959 he began to produce prints, especially lithographs. Tàpies enjoyed international success and was exhibited at documenta II, III, IV and VI in Kassel (1959-1977), among many other shows, as well as several times at the Venice Biennale. The artist's preoccupation with his native Catalonia has always been an important thematic source in Tàpies' work. In Suite Catalana, published in 1972 with Gustavo Gili from Barcelona, he uses the shapes and colours of the Catalan flag to create a powerful visual representation of emotion and protest.
