Colour lithograph, 1970. Signed, dated and dedicated by the artist lower recto. Edition of 80. Published by Éditions Pennsylvanie, 1970. Image size: 26 x 29 cm. LITERATURE: Asger Jorn Werkverzeichnis Druckgrafik, Galerie van de Loo / Silkeborg Kunstmuseum, 2010. // A vivid colour lithograph from Jorn's mature CoBrA period. A sweeping dark green mass dominates the upper register, pressing over a luminous lavender ground. Bold orange and amber forms erupt with volcanic force in the lower centre, while dense black gestural marks cluster into a totemic figure. Blue accents thread through the composition. Jorn's characteristic fusion of the instinctual and the imaginary — raw, spontaneous, and charged with mythic energy — is present in every mark.

What is the CoBrA movement?
CoBrA stands for Copenhagen, Brussels, and Amsterdam; the group was formed with a desire to break away from the existing art movements of the time. Their critique of Western society led them to experiment and evolve into a significant international movement. CoBrA was founded on November 8, 1948, at the Notre Dame Café in Paris, where its manifesto was signed by Karel Appel, Joseph Noiret, Corneille, Christian Dotremont, Constant, and Asger Jorn. The group was united by a shared commitment to freedom in both form and color, and their work emphasized experimentation and spontaneity.
