Antoni Tàpies: From Object to Sculpture

Fundació Antoni Tàpies, Barcelona presents the first full revision on Antoni Tàpies’ sculptures and objects, which includes his entire work along nearly five decades, since the 1960s to date.


Starting with "assemblage" notion, Tàpies developed an interest, which accompanied him throughout his life, in the formal and conceptual aspects related to the creation of objects and sculptures, a research line that allowed him to tackle the concrete artistic matters he was worried about.


Antoni Tàpies, del objeto a la escultura (Antoni Tàpies, from object to sculpture), presents artworks created with varied materials and techniques, explores the theme an conceptual continuity followed by Tàpies throughout his career to produce sculptures and objects and gives new readings and perspectives on the influence of this artist in the art of his time.

 

The show will be taking place at Barcelona’s Fundació Antoni Tàpies de Barcelona, October 4 – January 19, 2014.
