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.

Thanks for the tip, I will have to look into this! Afraid I have no knowledge of Antoni Tapies but now I am curious!
Un genio del arte abstracto.Saludos
Yes, it’s an amazing building in Barcelona and his art is certainly unique!
