Pierre Tal-Coat

Pierre Tal-Coat, born Pierre Louis Jacob, was a French painter and graphic artist, one of the founders of Tachism, the French version of Abstract Expressionism.

In his youth he worked as a painter in porcelain factories and was drafted into the army. In the 1930s, the artist painted large, bold women's portraits, self-portraits, and landscapes. In 1936, Tal-Coat spoke out against the war in Spain, painting a series of paintings titled Massacre. Later his painting moved to the non-objective plane.
