What is the significance of the "CARR S" series in Tàpies’s work?
Created in 1967, this series reflects Tàpies's peak 'Matter Painting' period. The title refers to his exploration of structural forms (Carr/Carre) and signs, emphasizing the painting as an object or a 'wall' rather than a window.
Why did Tàpies use cryptic symbols like those seen in CARR S 1967?
Tàpies used crosses, X’s, and letters as a universal language to explore themes of life, death, and Catalan identity. These symbols invite the viewer to look beyond the surface and find spiritual meaning in raw matter.
