Sergej Jensen is a contemporary Danish artist, known for his sparse paintings that highlight the formal intricacies of a painting’s structure. Through muted hues and eclectic mark-making, Jensen probes the subtly of materials. His work is perhaps best understood in the context of other Minimalist painters like Michael Krebber, Robert Ryman, and Blinky Palermo. Jensen has described his practice as "Painting without paint." His surfaces and materials are handled in a manner that the most delicate scrubbed and patinated areas act as expressive marks.
Sergej Jensen’s work draws on a wide range of materials and formal references. Primarily known for his textile works, his lyrical compositions incorporate a variety of fabrics, from burlap and linen to silk and wool.

Alfred Jensen was an American abstract painter associated with the Abstract Expressionist movement. Jensen's work often incorporated complex systems of symbols and numerals, which he believed could be used to represent the structure of the universe.
Jensen spent much of his childhood in Europe before immigrating to the United States in the 1920s. He studied at the Art Students League in New York and began his career as an artist in the 1930s, creating figurative paintings that were influenced by the work of Picasso and other European modernists.
In the 1950s and 1960s, Jensen began exploring abstraction and began incorporating his interest in numerology and symbolism into his work. He developed a complex system of symbols and numerals, which he believed could be used to represent the underlying structure of the universe. His paintings often featured grids, mandalas, and other geometric forms, and he believed that his art could serve as a kind of visual language that could help unlock the mysteries of the universe.
Jensen's work was exhibited widely in the United States and Europe, and he was the recipient of several awards and honors throughout his career.
Jensen's unique approach to abstraction and his interest in numerology and symbolism have made him an important figure in the development of abstract painting in the mid-20th century.
