Asger Jorn is one of the most admired names in Nordic art. A founding member of several major art movements from the International Movement for an Imaginist Bauhaus to the revolutionary Situationist International, Jorn has produced creative works in collaboration with French cubist Fernand Leger and legendary architect Le Corbusier. The centenary of Jorn's birth will be marked in 2014, making this a perfect time to revisit his life and prolific body of work. Published in cooperation with the Museum Jorn Silkeborg in Denmark, this book uses more than one hundred full-color illustrations of Jorn's most important artworks along with letters, interviews, photographs, press clippings by and about the artist, and even excerpts from Jorn's mother's unpublished book about her son to provide readers with a broad overview.
