Artful Dialogue
The archival book for Antoni Tàpies’ solo exhibition in Shanghai reflects the celebrated contemporary artist’s profound integration of spiritual depth into everyday objects. Evoking his methods, the design of the white, yellow and black volumes incorporates mundane mixed materials including grey board, staples, cotton and canvas, fascinatingly enriched with techniques such as embossing, UV printing, hand-tearing and hot-stamping. The carefully curated result mirrors the artist’s methods and honours his philosophy: imbuing ordinary materials with dignity and infusing everyday life with mystery.
