Asger Jorn
Asger Jorn (Denmark, 1914–1973) was a Danish painter, sculptor, and ceramicist, co-founding the avant-garde movement COBRA and the Situationist International. His dynamic, expressive works often combined abstract forms with vibrant colors, reflecting his interest in spontaneous creation and critique of contemporary society. Jorn's legacy includes a significant influence on European post-war art.

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.
