During 1948-1951 a group of artists from three Northern European countries organized and issued a manifesto under the collective title ôCoBrAö from Copenhagen, Brussels & Amsterdam. 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. Cobra disbanded as a formal entity in 1951, but the works of this exhibtion, which range from 1940 to the early 1970Æs, show that its brief existence had a tremendous impact on the later artists who participated in it, as well as on following generations. , English, Year1981, Illust.
