On 16 July 1948 the Experimentele Groep was founded by Karel Appel, Corneille, Theo Wolvecamp, Constant, Jan Nieuwehuys, Anton Rooskens and Eugene Brands. Later on this group became known as the Dutch hard core of the international Cobra movement. The artists closely co-operated with experimental groups a.o. from Paris, Copenhagen, Brussels.
Asger Jorn introduced Jacqueline de Jong to Gruppe Spur, the German branch of the radical left-wing movement Situationist International. After Guy Debord expelled her from the movement in 1962, she founded her own magazine: The Situationist Times. The publication followed the critical principles that formed the basis of the Situationist International.
In The Situationist Times nr 1 Constant wrote a manifest explaining the goals of the Experimentele Groep in The Netherlands.

On 16 July 1948 the Experimentele Groep was founded by Karel Appel, Corneille, Theo Wolvecamp, Constant, Jan Nieuwehuys, Anton Rooskens and Eugene Brands. Later on this group became known as the Dutch hard core of the international CoBrA movement; COpenhagenBRusselsAmsterdam. The artists closely co-operated with experimental groups a.o. from Paris, Copenhagen, Brussels.They published a magazine called Reflex, a name that referred to the fact that they looked at their works as an immediate reaction to reality, not steered by the ratio; an expression of reality equal to how they experienced the years after the Second World War.
In The Situationist Times, nr 1, Constant wrote a manifest explaining the goals of the Experimentele Groep in Holland.
