// Antoni Tàpies' Poems 5 (1974) is a lithograph that reflects his characteristic use of texture and minimalistic abstraction. The artwork is dominated by a dark, almost monochromatic background, punctuated by rough, textured areas at the top and horizontal, gold-colored patches that appear torn or worn, creating an intriguing contrast. The composition's simplicity, paired with the subtle use of materials, evokes a sense of mystery and contemplation. Tàpies often explored the physicality of his medium, and this piece exemplifies his focus on the tactile qualities and the poetic resonance of abstract forms. This limited edition print is produced in an edition of 75.

What is Tachisme?
Tachisme is a French abstract painting style that gained popularity between 1940 and 1950, often seen as the European counterpart to Abstract Expressionism. However, there are stylistic differences between the two. Tachisme, which emerged from Art Informel, rejected geometric abstraction in favor of more intuitive and spontaneous expression. It was a reaction against the structured forms of Cubism and is closely related to Informalism. Tachisme emphasizes gestural brushwork, irregular forms, and a focus on the process of painting itself.
