Tachism(from French, tache: “spot”) Style of painting practiced in Paris after World War II and through the 1950s. Like its U.S. equivalent, action painting, it featured the intuitive, spontaneous gesture of the artist's brush stroke. The Tachists, including Hans Hartung and Georges Mathieu, produced large works of sweeping brush strokes and of drips, blots, stains, and splashes of colour. Tachism was part of the postwar movement known as Art Informel, inspired by U.S. Abstract Expressionism. Want to thank TFD for its existence?

No references found | While most of the art produced during SI's early years looks pretty much the same (violent, aggressive postwar painting a la tachisme, art informel and/or CoBrA), the most innovative LI and SI projects employed detournement, a method--which Debord distinguished from collage--of reusing recognized media to create a different message. MH SIENA Group Zero Palazzo delle Papesse May 29-September 19 Curated by Marco Meneguzzo and Stephan von Wiese Just as a generation of artists in the States revolted against the expressionist ethos of action painting, in Europe art informel and tachisme engendered a host of countermovements in the late '50s. In 1957, however, he reinvented himself once more, quitting his teaching post and resigning from the Royal Academy to go to France and pursue tachisme. |
