Tapies The Complete Works Volume 3: 1969 - 1975 (Ciltli)

This is the third in a seris of six volumes on the important contemporary Spanish artist Antoni Tapies. The series presents his entire, æuvre, including paintings, drawings, watercolors, and sculptures. The period covered by this third volume presents work in which social and political elements appear to have been accentuated. During the second half of the 1960s and the first half of the 1970s, Tapies' art acquired a more specifically political character of protest. Many of his works produced in the course of these years constitute criticism of autocratic and bureauctatic power. The following are some Tapies' major oneman exhibitions held during the period: Galeria Maeght, Paris, 1969; Gallery Moos, Toronto, 1969; Martha Jackson Gallery, New York 1970; Galleria II Collezionista, Rome, 1971; Galerie Maeght, Paris, 1972; Martha Jackson Gallery; New York, 1973; Musee d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, 1973; Louisiana Museum, Humblebaek, 1973; National Galerie, Berlin, 1974; Gallery Moos, Toronyo, 1974; Martha Jackson Gallery, New York, 1975; Galerie Beyeler, Basel, 1975. Anna Agusti, art historian and specialist in the work of Tapies, was responsible for both the catalog as a whole and the cataloging criteria; the chronology and bibliography are by Miquel Tapies, B.A. in the History of Art and Director of the Tapies Foundation; finally, the foreword was written by Manuel J. Borja- Villel, Director of Exhibitions at the Foundation. (Kitabın İçinden)
