Jean Tinguely's Chaos I etching from 1973 with intricate mechanical-like lines and geometric forms in a chaotic arrangement.

Etching // Chaos I by Jean Tinguely, created in 1973, is an intricate etching that captures the essence of controlled disorder, characteristic of Tinguely’s fascination with mechanical and kinetic art. The artwork is a dynamic explosion of intersecting lines, circular shapes, and geometric forms that appear to be in perpetual motion. Tinguely uses fine, sketch-like lines to convey a sense of mechanical complexity, as if parts of a machine are disassembled and suspended in space. The composition draws the viewer's eye through its chaotic energy, symbolizing the artist’s commentary on industrialization, technology, and the unpredictable nature of mechanical systems.

What is Nouveau Realism?

Nouveau Réalisme is an artistic movement founded in 1960 by art critic Pierre Restany and painter Yves Klein during a collective exhibition at a gallery in Milan. Restany wrote the original manifesto in April 1960, proclaiming the movement. In October of that year, nine artists, including Martial Raysse, Yves Klein, Daniel Spoerri, Jean Tinguely, Arman, Pierre Restany, and three Ultra-Lettrists—Jacques de la Villeglé, François Dufrêne, and Raymond Hains—signed the declaration. In 1961, the movement expanded to include Mimmo Rotella, Niki de Saint Phalle, Gérard Deschamps, and César. The movement emphasized a return to reality in art, often incorporating everyday objects and exploring the boundaries between art and life.
