Meanwhile, in the life of Henri Michaux

The whole life

    Letters to Franz Hellens

    He writes letters to Franz Hellens; published only after Michaux's death, they cover 1922–1952.

    Association with Tachisme

    In the 1940s and 1950s he is associated with Tachisme, though that describes only a small part of his artistic achievement, such as his hallucinatory representations of faces and heads; his work often uses dense, suggestively gestural strokes that incorporate calligraphy, asemic writing and abstract expressionism.

    Sylvia Beach's English translation of “A Barbarian in Asia” appears.
