During 1948-1951 a group of artists from Belgium, Denmark and the Netherlands organized and issued a manifesto under the collective title “Cobra.” The group was involved within the context of the social, political, economic, and cultural chaos of postwar Europe, and also reponded to a variety of theories and ideas which had gained currency during the first half of the century. This comprehensive book presents various esways and manifestos that provide the philosophical underpinnings of this short, tragic, yet powerful movement.
