""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, Tàpies' 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 bureaucratic power. The following are some of Tapies' major one-man exhibitions held during the period: Galerie Maeght, Paris, 1969; Gallery Moos, Toronto, 1969; Martha Jackson Gallery, New York, 1970; Galleria Il Collezionista, Rome, 1971; Galerie Maeght, Zurich, 1971; Galerie Maeght, Paris, 1972; Martha Jackson Gallery, New York, 1973; Musee d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, 1973; Louisiana Museum, Humlebaek, 1973; National Galerie, Berlin, 1974; Gallery Moos, Toronto, 1974; Martha Jackson Gallery, New York, 1975; Galerie Beyeler, Basel, 1975"--On dust jacket, volume 3 Complete Works."@en

""The sixth volume of the Antoni Tàpies catalogue raisonné includes the works done between 1986 and 1990. The second half of the eighties began with a great creatives spurt in fields as diverse as the material pictures, sculptures, drawing and cartboard. The impulse came partly from a project he was working on feverishly: the Fundació Antoni Tàpies. That activity took the shape of renewed experimentation with materials and techniques in a quest for new forms of expression, coupled with a conscious return to his past, the themes and techniques he knows so well"--On dust jacket, volume 6 Obra Completa."@en

""This fourth volume of the complete works of Tàpies, a series which is planned to include a total of seven volumes, covers the period between 1976 and 1981. In this period, the number of openly political statements in Tàpies' work, begins to decline significantly, due in part to Spain's democratization. Once again, the artist was free to energetically devote himself to tackling artistic problems, searching for new pictorial approaches and technical procedures, and experimenting with new materials and instruments. In the second half of the seventies and in the early eighties, Tàpies work is characterized mainly by stringent formal simplification, and consequently, by univocal motifs. He returns to hermetic walls, and offsets large surfaces with geometrical structures straddling the central object. This is also a period of suggestive relief effects produces by objects covered by large canvases, and works that reproduce the imprint of objects from everyday life pressed onto a still-moist medium"--On dust jacket, volume 4 Complete Works."@en

""This is the first in a series of six volumes on the important contemporary Spanish artist Antoni Tàpies, which is planned to contain his entire oeuvre. Volume 1 documents the beginning of his prolific career well into the years that saw the full consolidation of his world and language. This catalog of drawings, watercolors, paintings and sculptures contributed to a better understanding of the artist and his work at a time when his art is at the height of its maturity and international acclaim. Here are his early works in collage, and his paintings of the 1940s dominated by earth hues and smoke-stained colors and the graffitic figures and scratches which are characteristic of his subsequent works. Also included are his canvases from 1949 to 1953. In these Tàpies abandons all attempts to achieve his effects through the actual quality of the paint. Instead, he uses backgrounds made up of subtly differentiated tonal values. On these he superimposed or engraved geometric signs or deformed letters, such as in Mudrc, 1949. Also well represented in his later return to experimenting with materials, such as oil paint combined with crushed marble, powdered pigment, and latex. With these he created huge surfaces, covered with fossil-like imprints, creases, and thin, crude colors that appear to have been washed and denatured by the weather"--On dust jacket, volume 1 Complete Works."@en

""Volume 2 documents the work following his triumphal exhibitions at the Venice Biennale in 1958 and Documenta in Kassel in 1961--that led to a retrospective at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York in 1962--and his growing influence in the United States and throughout Europe. During the decade covered in this volume Tàpies explored the oneiric spaces of beds, ladders and chairs in monochromatic earth colors. His consuming interest in Asian art and philosophy and in the detritus of catholic imagery in the stifling atmosphere of Franco's Spain reached a climax. His reexamination of analytical Cubism led to a waining in his interest in granular materials combined with paint and his paintings exhibit a clarity of saturated tone at variance to his earlier production. Tàpies also took up the inquiry into format and edge begun by American artists in the 1950s and extended their investigation in paintings of unprecedented beauty"--On dust jacket, volume 2 Complete Works."@en

""Volume five of the annotated catalogue consists of Tàpies work from 1982-1985. The 1980s were marked by his use of varnish, a material that allows him to play with a transparency, disorder and heterogeneity that contrast with the opaque quality and austere compositions of his matter paintings. Whether applied to large expanses of paper, canvas or wood or used to hint at almost calligraphic shapes, varnish makes these works light and luminous. This volume is not limited solely to the varnish paintings of the first half of the 1980s but also includes other paintings and sculptures produced during these four years, reflecting Tàpies' constant experiments with other techniques and materials"--On dust jacket, volume 5 Obra Completa."@en
