Breer’s work owes a debt to Hans Richter, Oskar Fischinger, and László Moholy-Nagy, but it is quicker, more violent and jagged, highlighting the rough edges. Breer, in other words, differed from his predecessors by embracing some of the impulsiveness of Abstract Expressionism and the shifting, nerve-racking time signatures of bebop and free jazz."},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"In films zoals '[Recreation](http://ensembles.mhka.be/items/5029)'(1956 - 57) en 'Eyewash' (1959), wisselt Breer 'shots' van huishoudelijke voorwerpen met heldere, contradictorisch gerangschikte abstracte patronen.
