The artwork titled “Z” was created by Antoni Tapies in 1981 and is associated with the Tachisme art movement, falling within the genre of abstract art.
The artwork features a predominantly beige background with a central rectangular region filled with dark hues of blue and black. Within this central area, abstract shapes and forms are reminiscent of gestural strokes characteristic of Tachisme. To the left, the letter “Z” is partially visible, seemingly scribbled in a hand-drawn manner. The dark, textured forms and seemingly random lines give the artwork a dynamic and somewhat chaotic feel, representing an expressive and spontaneous style typical of the artist’s oeuvre. The composition is minimalistic yet intense, inviting viewers to interpret the elements and their possibly profound meanings.
