Size of the image: 30.8 x 22.8 cm. - Size of the paper: 56 x 76 cm. // Eduardo Chillida’s Homenaje a Omar Khayyam is an abstract etching from 1982 that pays tribute to the Persian poet and philosopher Omar Khayyam. This work reflects Chillida’s deep engagement with form and negative space, where he uses a minimalistic approach to create a sense of depth and balance. The etching features a distinct black form that intersects with the white area above, creating an interplay of light and shadow. The organic cut-out shape in the center of the composition evokes a sense of passage or opening, symbolizing a gateway or a philosophical inquiry, resonating with Khayyam’s meditative poetry. The print measures 30.8 x 22.8 cm within a larger sheet of 56 x 76 cm and is part of a limited edition of 99, plus additional proofs. This piece exemplifies Chillida’s ability to evoke meaning and contemplation through minimal and abstract forms.

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.
