// Nesting Bird by Karel Appel is a lithograph created in 1978, part of a limited edition series. This print, measuring 54.6 x 73.7 cm, exemplifies Appel's abstract and expressionist style, characteristic of his involvement in the CoBrA movement. The artwork features a dynamic and colorful composition where the form of a bird is rendered with bold, sweeping brushstrokes and vibrant colors such as deep blues, reds, yellows, and purples. The chaotic energy and layered textures evoke movement and spontaneity, bringing the nesting bird to life in an abstract, almost primal manner, typical of Appel’s expressive approach to art.

What is abstract expressionism?
Abstract Expressionism is an art movement that emerged in the United States during the 1940s and 1950s. Characterized by large, abstract canvases, the movement emphasized spontaneous, expressive brushwork and the use of color and form to convey emotion rather than represent reality. Artists like Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Willem de Kooning are key figures in this movement. Abstract Expressionism marked a shift in the art world, making New York City a center of the international art scene.
