{"product_id":"coeur-et-fleche-antoni-tapies","title":"Coeur et fleche - Antoni Tàpies","description":"\u003cp\u003eA striking abstract lithograph by Antoni Tàpies, featuring expressive calligraphic marks and a bold red and black palette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAntoni Tàpies, a central figure in the post-war European art scene, developed a unique visual language that often incorporated unconventional materials and gestural marks. In Coeur et fleche, the artist employs a restricted palette of black and red against a neutral ground, creating a composition that balances spontaneity with deliberate placement. The work features a central, hazy form that suggests a heart, overlaid with aggressive, calligraphic strokes and splatters of red pigment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTàpies often explored the relationship between the physical and the metaphysical. His use of spray-paint techniques, combined with heavy, ink-like brushwork, creates a sense of depth and texture that is characteristic of his later graphic output. The composition avoids traditional representation, instead relying on the raw energy of the mark-making process to convey its subject. The interplay between the soft, diffused edges of the central shape and the sharp, decisive lines of the black ink provides a visual tension that is typical of his approach to printmaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece reflects the artist's interest in the materiality of the surface. By layering different types of marks, Tàpies invites the viewer to consider the act of creation itself. The work does not seek to depict a literal heart or arrow, but rather to evoke the emotional resonance associated with these symbols through abstract form. As a practitioner of the Informel movement, Tàpies prioritised the expressive potential of the medium, allowing the physical properties of the ink and the movement of the hand to dictate the final outcome. This print offers a direct encounter with the artist's signature style, capturing a moment of intense creative focus through a minimalist yet highly evocative arrangement of colour and line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/untitled-t1982-h12-hans-hartung\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eUntitled (T1982-H12) by Hans Hartung\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/annunciation-martin-kline\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eAnnunciation by Martin Kline\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/antoni-tapies\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#2a555a;border:1px solid #2a555a;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#ffffff;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eAntoni Tàpies prints →\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Antoni Tàpies","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59138867724623,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59138912944463,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59138912977231,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59138913009999,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59138913042767,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59138913075535,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59138913108303,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59138913141071,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59138913173839,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59138913206607,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59138913239375,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59138913272143,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Coeur-et-fleche_Poster_CompositorV1_1792121094453.jpg?v=1792202861","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/coeur-et-fleche-antoni-tapies","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
