COLLAGE ON VIEW Beyond PaintingMax Ernst at Museum of Modern Art in New York City through January 01, 2018. In 1919, Max Ernst was living in post-war Cologne, Germany with his new bride, Luise Straus. He went to Munich to study with Paul Klee and saw the paintings of Giorgio de Chirico, which moved him to create fantastical images free of narrative, irrational, and surreal. He began cutting up mail-order catalogues, scientific manuals, and teaching-aides as a way of plumbing “his own psyche for inspiration and to confront his own trauma.” MORE |

The shape of the final work defines the composition and provides a visual anchor. The copious fragments become the texture and colour of the image.
