Description

Max Ernst: A Life Beyond Painting Max Ernst was an artist of unparalleled originality, whose work transformed everything he touched. Born in 1891 and passing away in 1976, Ernst played a pivotal role in the development of Dadaism and Surrealism, driven by his reaction to the horrors of World War I. Ernst's career spanned decades, taking him from Cologne to Paris, where he became acquainted with the Surrealists. He produced an impressive oeuvre that encompassed various mediums, including paintings, drawings, sculpture, texts, stage settings, and collage novels. His innovative techniques, such as 'frottage', further solidified his position in the art world. This book offers a journey into the intricate mind and world of Max Ernst, exploring magic, vividness, and fantasy. With 96 pages of hardcover content, it provides an in-depth look at this influential artist's life and work.
