Thorkild Viggo Hansen was one of the founders of 'L'Équipo 57'. During a stay in Paris in the 50s he met a group of Spanish painters, with whom he formed the group and wrote the manifesto “Interactivité de l'espace plastique”. The painters showed a peculiar geometry, always with opaque colours, flat dyes and compact and striking masses, which evolved from the juxtaposition of irregular shapes to blunt and sinuous shapes fitted together and initial attempts at kinetic art.
