Academic Thesis.

 From 1946 to 1949 - between his wartime association with the Danish art journal Helbesten and his central role in the emergence of the international Crobra movement (1948-1951) - the artist Asger Jorn devoted much of his attention to the writing of a comprehensive theory of art and society. This study is the first to offer a analysis, along woth translation in English of significant passages, of the full scope of Jorn's theory at the time when Cobra was being founded.
