Details

Artist

Styles

Etching and aquatint, hand signed by the artist. // Argi IV by Eduardo Chillida, created in 1988, is an etching and aquatint that emphasizes simplicity and the play of light and shadow through abstract forms. The artwork features an arrangement of black geometric shapes that interrupt the white space, creating a balanced yet fragmented composition. These dark, rectangular forms are placed across the image with subtle irregularities and gaps, evoking architectural structures or a stylized landscape. Chillida’s mastery of negative space draws the viewer’s attention to both the forms themselves and the blank areas, inviting contemplation on presence and absence. Argi, meaning light in Basque, is reflected in the piece’s exploration of contrast, simplicity, and the interaction between form and void.

What is Art Informel?

Art Informel is a French term referring to the gestural and improvisational techniques common in abstract painting during the 1940s and 50s. It encompasses various styles that dominated these decades, characterized by informal, spontaneous methods. Artists used this term to describe approaches that moved away from traditional structures and embraced more expressive, unstructured techniques.
