Description
"His desire for more detached language of signs prompted Tapies to carry further his investigations into the significance of form. In a collage Newspaper cross 1946-47 (11) the dominant shape is a cross cut out of the obituary page of a Catholic newspaper and pasted to the background so that the black crosses in the print appear at an odd angle, suggesting a disregard of their pious intention." CD 1/15/2007
