Just heard on the news that the Catalan artist Tapies has died aged 88.  I have been meaning for ages to go back to the Fundacio´ Tàpies  in Barcelona. I went there first without really having a strong feeling about Tapies art but came away feeling really inspired
I go to Barcelona tomorrow I may pop in there and sign the book of condolence. It is only a few minutes walk from Passeig de Gracia station.

“Art should startle the viewer into thinking about the meaning of life.”  Antoni Tapies 1923-2012
