Lithograph in a portfolio with 14 colour lithographs by Alechinsky, Appel, Baj, Constant, Corneille, Dotremont, Lam, Matta, Michaux, Saura, Ting, Van Velde, Wemaëre, and Wyckaert.
Shortly after Asger Jorn's death on 1 May 1973, a Foundation was launched in memory of him. The purpose of the Foundation is to promote the understanding and the appreciation of his work.
Until now the Foundation has relied upon the support of various private individuals and institutions. We are indebted to the two Danish artists Henry Heerup and Per Kirkeby (as well as their lithographer Bjørn Rosengreen) who have donated graphic work.
In the album « For Jorn », Asger Jorn's artist friends from outside Denmark have joined forces. The technical side of the production has been carried out by Atelier Clot, Bramsen & Georges, whose members are long-standing friends and close work associates of Asger John. « For Jorn » is a tribute to the artist from his friends.
The sale of this portofolio will provide the Foundation with valuable funds for completing some of the projects which Jorn had begun, but wich were left unfinished at the time of the death. On behalf of the Foundation we would like to express our warmest thanks to all the artists who have so generously participated in his tribute to Asger Jorn.
Presentation
The writer, poet, and painter Henri Michaux was born in Namur in 1899. Born into a wealthy family living in Brussels, he grew up reading Dostoevsky and Tolstoy. He studied medicine first, then gave it up to become a sailor. He discovered Lautréamont and began to write a lot himself. He emigrated to Paris in the '20s and renounced Belgium.
From 1925 he discovered painting, which enabled him to « free himself from words, these sticky partners ». His techniques included watercolours, drawing, gouache, engraving and ink. His drawings of neurons, faces, and hundreds of silhouettes invaded the paper to create strange textures. Both in drawing and writing, his content was inspired by his experiences with mescalin which he experimented with very scientifically, a reminder of his penchant for medicine.
He took part in the « L’envolée lyrique » exhibition in Paris (1945-1956) but often refused to accept the awards conferred on him as well as interviews in order to preserve his solitude and discreet place in history. He also never joined any movement, as he considered writing and painting as the means of introspection.
