Van de Loo 230. Color lithograph printed by Beaudet, Paris // L'oubli by Asger Jorn is a dynamic lithograph created in 1960-61, reflecting the artist's expressive and abstract style. Produced in an edition of 30 and printed by Beaudet in Paris, this piece uses an energetic blend of red, blue, and green strokes layered over a neutral background. The composition is chaotic yet deliberate, with sweeping, gestural lines and splashes of color that suggest a tension between order and spontaneity. Jorn’s technique reflects the influence of the CoBrA movement, which valued raw, unfiltered creativity and often evoked a sense of primal energy. L'oubli captures the essence of forgetting or erasure, evoking layers of memory and emotion through its complex visual interplay.

What is Tachisme?
Tachisme is a French abstract painting style that gained popularity between 1940 and 1950, often seen as the European counterpart to Abstract Expressionism. However, there are stylistic differences between the two. Tachisme, which emerged from Art Informel, rejected geometric abstraction in favor of more intuitive and spontaneous expression. It was a reaction against the structured forms of Cubism and is closely related to Informalism. Tachisme emphasizes gestural brushwork, irregular forms, and a focus on the process of painting itself.
