Signed and numbered by the artist. // Five Invocations II is a powerful lithograph by Paul Jenkins from 1997, presenting a vortex of rich, saturated colors that converge into a dark, almost mystical center. Brilliant yellows, fiery reds, deep blues, and emerald greens swirl around a dense core of mingled pigments, creating a composition that evokes both cosmic energy and intimate emotional depth. Jenkins’s mastery of controlled fluidity is evident in the way each chromatic layer interacts with its neighbors, producing luminous edges where colors meet and merge. The work demonstrates the artist’s lifelong exploration of phenomena — the behavior of light and color in motion — that established him as a vital figure in postwar abstraction.

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.
