Informel – Jean Miotte war ein bedeutender französischer Maler, der vor allem für seine abstrakten, gestischen Werke bekannt wurde. Er gilt als der erste Vertreter der L'Art Informel, die sich für eine radikale Abstraktion und eine Abkehr von traditionellen Kunstformen einsetzte. Im Fokus stand hier nicht die figürliche Darstellung, sondern die emotionale und dynamische Kraft des Pinselstrichs. Jean Miotte hatte einen enormen Einfluss auf die französische abstrakte Kunst und blieb zeitlebens innovativ und experimentierfreudig. Der französische Künstler gilt als einer der wichtigsten Pioniere der abstrakten Kunst in Frankreich.
