Formlessness and spontaneity are characteristic features of Art Informel, a movement in painting that appears on the scene in Paris in the late 1940s and soon spreads to Vienna. Artists in the orbit of Galerie nächst St. Stephan integrate its inspirations into their work. Among them is Markus Prachensky, who fully dedicates himself to the style in the 1950s. His particular focus is on conveying the momentum of a painterly gesture, the energy imparted to the canvas, to the beholder. The painting “Rouges différents sur noir—Liechtenstein” is one in a first series of pictures in which he paints in red on a black ground. Red will later become Prachensky’s signature color.
