CNN —Throughout Evelyne Axell’s short but radical career, the Belgian artist revered the female body in psychedelic hues rendered in gleaming enamel.

Her stylistic approach — a mix of pop art influences and dreamy surrealist settings — is still underrecognized, according to Morris. “She acts as a historical bridge (between surrealism and pop art),” she said.

Oct 10 (Reuters) - German government bond yields jumped while yield spreads between core and periphery tightened on Monday after a media report saying Germany's Chancellor Olaf Scholz supported joint-debt issuances to tackle the energy crisis. Italy's 10-year bond yield fell 2.5 bps to 4.67% , with the spread between Italian and German 10-year yield tightening to 233 bps . Bond yields edged lower earlier in the session after blasts rocked the Ukrainian capital Kyiv and other major Ukrainian cities, prompting a move into traditional safe-haven assets such as core government bonds. Euro zone bond yields had jumped on Friday after strong U.S. jobs data dampened expectations that the Federal Reserve will slow the pace of interest rate hikes. Among euro zone bond sales, the European Union has mandated banks for a 20-year benchmark bond and a tap of its December 2029 bond, scheduled to be launched tomorrow, according to a memo seen by Reuters.
