(image) Handsigned by the artist in pencil Certificate of authenticity Here, etching becomes a field of confrontation with the material. Soulages provokes it, lets it react, highlighting the unexpected effects created by the acid, the ink and the pressure of the press. Printing in a single pass reinforces this physical and direct relationship, making each proof the result of a fragile balance between control and abandonment.
