AlbertEnz Monograf final

(1). Another trend I want to focus on, which will be instrumental in tracing
and contextualizing Albert Enz, is Informal Art. In 1951, Michel Tapié employed
the term for the first time. More than an artistic movement, Informal Art was
a different approach to representation in painting. Born in the post-war period,
humanity as a whole, including artists, was deeply marked by dark,
sad, and painful feelings. This pain, probably out of necessity, was represented
in a new way, which also revealed a harsh critique of form.
It's interesting to note how the works of these artists were a perfect expression
of limitless liberation, emotion, spontaneity, and narration. In terms of
painting techniques, they also differed from traditional ones: the use of spatulas,
brushes, everyday objects, dripping or spraying paint was frequent.
In this way, the artistic process transcended the boundaries of creativity,
combining emotion with gesture. Albert Enz encompasses much of this history,
starting from Post-Impressionism and reaching Informal Art, evident
in both forms and colors, as well as content. Albert Enz's freedom is the
meeting point of all avant-garde philosophies, where the implicit representation
of the soul and emotions predominates.
