Bram Bogart (12 July 1921, Delft – 2 May 2012, Sint-Truiden) was a Belgian expressionist[1] painter most closely associated with the COBRA group.
Subsequent to World War Two the then twenty-five-year-old painter settled in Paris, France, where he was among the founders of Art Informel.
With thick layers of boldly applied and colourful paint, he developed an expressionist style which became more abstract with time.
Here he began to experiment with a more three-dimensional medium, a mix of mortar, siccative, powdered chalk, varnish, and raw pigment, applied to large, heavy wooden backing structures.
[7] In 2011 the Bogart presented an exhibition in celebration of his 90th birthday, a display of his Monochrome paintings, held at the Bernard Jacobson Gallery in London.
