	ART: PEIRRE ALECHINSKY AT THE GUGGENHEIM - New York Times
		Alechinsky, born in Belgium in 1927, started his career in the late 40's as the youngest member of the short-lived Cobra, that group of Danish, Dutch and Belgian artists who practiced a gestural abstraction grounded in Surrealist automatism and European expressionism.
		Alechinsky in 1965 of surrounding a central image, usually painted in acrylic, with a wide border, usually drawn in ink and ink wash, which is compartmentalized into a series of little cartoon-like scenes.
		Alechinsky's way with paint, rather than ink, seems to hold more promise for development, and since that is rarely forthcoming, one begins to think of him as a talented graphic artist, as a painter manque and, generally, as an artist who has repeatedly settled for too little too soon.

	Robinsons Art Gallery - Pierre Alechinsky
		Pierre Alechinsky, who was born in 1927 in Brussels, Belgium, studied at the Brussels Academy of Architecture.
		Alechinsky was entranced by the art of bookmaking, this passion he fulfilled in his 40's by studying typography, illustration and engraving at the School of Decorative Arts in Brussels.
		Alechinsky is known to speak about his left hand as "the one that has known only liberty and pleasure".

	Pierre Alechinsky
		The Belgian painter and graphic artist Pierre Alechinsky was born in Brussels in 1927 and currently lives and works in Paris.
		This interest is evidenced in Alechinsky's works of the 1950s in which he used an overall structure of tightly interwoven elements that resemble scribbling.
		Alechinsky's use of paper, brushes, ink, and a quick-drying acrylic heightens the spontaneity of imagery.

	Pierre Alechinsky
		Pierre Alechinsky studied from 1944 to 1948 at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure d'Architecture et des Arts Decoratifs in Brussels, concentrating on book illustration, typography and various printmaking techniques.
		Along with Dotremont, Alechinsky was the linchpin of the Belgian branch of CoBrA; the last joint CoBrA exhibition in Liège was organised by him.
		Alechinsky threw himself with such enthusiasm into the task of organising the movement and editing its newsletter that he hardly had time for his own work, and for this reason he did not really begin to develop as an artist until after the CoBrA period.

	ALECHINSKY (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Alechinsky, whose father was a doctor who sought refuge in Belgium after fleeing antisemitic persecutions from pro-Tsarist troops in Crimea, was born in 1927.
		Alechinsky, who said that it would today be difficult for him to become successful because of all the diplomas required in art schools, then met the painters Edouard Pignon and Raymond Cossé with whom he shared a studio which was to become later the headquarters of the COBRA movement.
		Alechinsky, who was painting his works spread on the floor of his studio, first met success in an exhibition at the Palazzo Grassi in Venice.

	Pierre Alechinsky Exhibition
		Pierre Alechinsky stands among artist-engravers of this turn of the century whose work in the field of print continues to grow and prosper: to his credit, some two thousand plates.
		Born in Brussels in 1927, Parisian since 1951 (after the disbanding of the COBRA group, of which he was part), Alechinsky has over fifty years of graphic work behind him, years where writing and drawing coincide, - as notes in the margin and central scene, humour and poetry, verbal imagination and plastic reality.
		This elegant gesture permits the public, through the present retrospective, to savour in fl and white (and the occasional jolt of red) the fruit of more than half a century of incessant creation (rmm).

	Pierre Alechinsky: Critters
		For Alechinsky, a founding member of COBRA (an acronym for the cities that contributed members to the group, Copenhagen, Brussels, and Amsterdam), the Year of the Snake can be an auspicious one.
		We are featuring lots of Alechinsky's favorite images: Central Park, snakes, volcanoes, gardens, dog-kings, smiling crocodiles and sea monsters, and people existing as best they can in a world that often seems to invite extreme emotional responses.
		Executed to commemorate Alechinsky's receipt of the Mellon Prize in 1977 (the "Year of the Snake" in the Chinese calendar), this accompanied the deluxe edition of Alechinsky's Painting's and Writings published to accompany his exhibition at the Carnegie Institue.

	ART OF THE 70'S: Alechinsky
		The Alechinskys live primarily in Bougival, not far from Paris, and treat their handsome apartment on the East River in Manhattan as a perch that they can go to, or not, as the fancy takes them.
		It is relevant to the reflective quality of this, and most of Alechinsky's other works, that he does not work standing up in front of an easel in the fencer's posture that we associate with the traditional painter in oils.
		Alechinsky's light, energetic use of line and color and the more recent American phenomena of pattern and decoration and graffiti art, which would also seem to share his interests in non-Western art sources and popular culture alike.

	5 dans ton oeil / Lâoreille du mur
		Alechinsky has contributed to such a bibliography, but its subtitle is a witty indication that comprehensiveness is out of the question.
		The two books that Robert and Lydie Dutrou made with Alechinsky in 1998 are described in it under numbers 146 and 147, and their sizes are quite different.
		Alechinsky visited Japan in 1955, from which time onwards his fascination for oriental calligraphy has been evident in all of his work.

		Pierre Alechinsky was born in Brussels, where he received training in book illustration and typography at the École Nationale Supérieure d'Architecture et des Arts Décoratifs.
		In the mid-1950s, Alechinsky studied the art of calligraphy in Japan, adopting some of its techniques for his own work, as well as the materials of brush and ink on paper.
		Alechinsky's figurative abstraction, still in the spirit of COBRA, indicates his fascination with primitive imagery and bold color that appeal directly to the viewer's experience and emotion.

	Madinkbeard » Pierre Alechinsky
		Andrei Molotiu pointed me towards the works of Pierre Alechinsky, a painter I was not familiar with, though I have heard of the group he was associated with, COBRA (some of whom later went on to join with parts of the Lettrist group to form the Situationist International).
		The panels often encircle the central image, though occasionally they just take up the bottom side (where one could see the connection to the Twombly painting I posted the other week).
		Admittedly, Alechinsky’s main mode of sequential art–one big image on top, a sequence on the bottom–derives mostly from the altarpiece/predella model.
