  • Summary

  • Max Ernst (1891-1976) was a German-born Surrealist artist who made significant contributions to the development of Surrealism and other modern art movements. He was born on April 2, 1891, in Brühl, Germany, and is known for his innovative and influential works in various artistic mediums, including painting, sculpture, collage, and printmaking. Ernst's art is characterized by its dreamlike and fantastical imagery, often created through techniques such as frottage (rubbing), grattage (scratching), and decalcomania (pressing paint between two surfaces). He played a pivotal role in the Surrealist movement, collaborating with other prominent artists such as André Breton and Salvador Dalí. His works often featured bizarre and metamorphic imagery, combining elements from the unconscious mind with everyday objects.
