ANTONI TÀPIES
20th Century Artists
Bath
Since Tàpies passing in the early part of 2012, it is an honor to continue showing the outstanding works by this great master.
Tàpies’ graphic work is concerned with the materiality of a work of art. He enjoys subverting traditional processes and often uses imagery from his immediate environment such as handprints, footprints to explore concepts such as “high” and “low” art.
