In the first half of the 90s we find a new representation of Tàpies's refractory clay sculptures, as well as objects and sculptures in which he experimented with new materials, such as bronze or metal sheets, also sometimes used ..."

"Cette pratique de l'art ne s'oppose pas à la création d'œuvres spécifiques ni à l'idée de la contemplation : même celle des mystiques, loin d'être une forme de passivité, peut être à l'origine d'un degré supérieur d'activité."

"The Spanish artist Antoni Tapies first received worldwide recognition in the 1950s for his "matter" paintings: relief-like works composed of dry pigments, sand, marble-dust and paint, which he scraped, incised and pierced. His early paintings have been likened to walls, their graffiti-like scrawls denoting the only means of free expression available under the Franco regime. The artist's later works express less tangible symbols and them ..."
"Antoni Tapies was born in 1923 to a Barcelona family of publishers and booksellers. He began drawing and painting as a young man, during a convalescence, and in the end gave up studying law to concentrate on art. By the 1940s, in his 20s, Tapies was already exhibiting widely. As an early Matter painter, he added dirt and other solids to his canvases, transmuting them into art and reminding viewers of the earth to which they would return ..."
"The work of Antoni Tàpies offers a unique case of the artist-as-shaman--that is, the artist as an alchemist who is capable of discovering the nature of materials, transforming their substance, and bringing meaning to life. A self-taught painter, Tapies began his career in the lively and exciting period directly following World War II: in 1947 he founded, along with Joan Brossa, the journal ''Dau al Set,'' which championed Surrealist aes ..."
"In the nearly seven decades of his career, Tàpies created a prolific and singular body of work that redefined painting and influenced future generations of artists. Following the Spanish Civil War and World War II, Tàpies sought to develop a new kind of painting. In the 1950s he began making his first matter paintings using materials such as marble dust and resin. These paintings positioned Tàpies as a leading figure in Europe's avant-g ..."

The leading rôle played by materials and textures within his creative universe, combined with his distinctive sense of colour, provide fine examples of the nature of his work, in which nothing proves insignificant and everything has a profound meaning expressing the true reality of the wor ..."
