About the Presentation
Almine Rech will show a selection of paintings and works on paper by Karel Appel. Born in Amsterdam in 1921, Appel was a founding member of the short-lived but highly influential European avant-garde group CoBrA, active from 1948 to 1951. He left his native country in 1950, and divided his time between Paris and New York from 1957 onwards. The presentation will focus on Appel’s artistic development in the 1950s and 60s, when he engaged in a long and fruitful collaboration with the New York dealer Martha Jackson.
