Jean Fautrier  (1898-1964): He was one of the major representatives of the informalism movement. Informalism focuses on shape, matter painting (impasto), the dialogue between the subject and the canvas. The nature of the canvas--the intimate, primeval taste of the materials. Touch, intention, entering the "space of the painting". Similarly to action painting (see Jackson Pollock), the canvas opens itself to the artist and the viewer alike, usually coming in a rather big format.

Hostage Head (1944)

I couldn't find the specific name of this piece, sorry :' )

Fautrier was heavily inspired by the atmospheric paintings of William Turner (1775-1851), before his ultimate abandonment of shape. The amorphous objects that appear in the paintings I chose are a reflection of humanity in the state of the war, what's left of a man after so much destruction. In Dépouille and Hostage Head, the body devolves into an embryo, immersed once again in a space of fluidity. Everything is matter, everything in this world is made of the same intrinsic substance. Fautrier offers a reflection on the brutal regression society, and humanity itself, must have been subjected to in order to achieve such violence as the one brought by the second world conflict.
