About Antoni Tàpies

Antoni Tàpies was a renowned Spanish painter, sculptor, and art theorist, widely regarded as one of the most prominent figures of 20th-century European art. Born in Barcelona in 1923, Tàpies began his artistic journey during a period marked by the Spanish Civil War and the subsequent dictatorship of Francisco Franco. His works often combined traditional artistic techniques with unconventional materials such as marble dust, string, and even waste paper, creating a unique style that blurred the lines between painting and sculpture.
