Lithograph and material collage (relief) on Arches paper.

Edition numbered 69/100 lower left and signed in pencil by the artist lower right.

The work belongs to Antoni Tàpies’s graphic production of 1991 and is characterized by the artist’s typical sign language, here developed through a minimal composition and a marked material exploration. The relief and the particular surface of the paper give the work a strong tactile and plastic presence, distinctive elements of Tàpies’s research and his relationship with matter.
