Karel Appel by Franz W. Kaiser - Almine Rech Editions 2020

Karel Appel (1921 – 2006, born in Amsterdam, Netherlands) is often described as the most influential Dutch artist of the second half of the 20th century, which is only partly true: he was of course born in Amsterdam, but in 1950, at age 29, left the Netherlands never to return. He moved to Paris with Corneille, Constant and Asger Jorn who formed the nucleus of CoBrA, a fiercely European avant-garde group founded two years earlier.
Features ‘Karel Appel dans la France Glorieuse’, a text by Franz W. Kaiser.
This catalogue was published in conjunction with Karel Appel’s exhibition ‘Figures et Paysages’ held at Almine Rech Paris from October 12 to November 16, 2019.
