Jean Arp's 'According to the Laws of Chance' embodies the Dada movement's embrace of randomness and the subconscious. This abstract composition features scattered, biomorphic shapes, reflecting Arp's exploration of chance as a creative force.
Jean Arp, born in Strasbourg, Alsace, was a French-German artist, sculptor, and poet associated with Dada and Surrealism. He began his career as an Expressionist painter, but later moved toward abstraction, experimenting with collage and wood relief. Arp's work often explored themes of chance, spontaneity, and the organic forms found in nature. He aimed to create art that was free from rational control, allowing the subconscious to guide his creative process. 'According to the Laws of Chance' exemplifies Arp's Dadaist principles. The composition features a scattering of irregular, biomorphic shapes against a light background. The forms appear to have been arranged randomly, reflecting the artist's embrace of chance as a creative force. The stark contrast between the dark shapes and the light background creates a visually striking image, while the lack of a clear focal point challenges traditional notions of composition. This work embodies the Dada movement's rejection of logic and reason, celebrating the irrational and the accidental.

So pleased with my print and the frame it’s housed in. Fantastic quality and really adds character to the room. Communication was great and it was delivered quicker than estimated. Overall I’m extremely pleased and will recommend to friends. I’m already eying up my next purchase!
Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
