Astre Désastre 1969

"Astre Désastre" is a 1969 painting by Pierre Alechinsky, a Belgian painter associated with the CoBrA movement. The painting features a central circular motif, a swirling vortex of color and shape, set against a green background. The central motif is surrounded by a band of wavy blue lines that suggest water, and the bottom of the artwork is comprised of a series of smaller, distinct sections. Alechinsky’s work often explores themes of chaos and order, and "Astre Désastre" embodies these themes in its chaotic but visually captivating composition.
