Peter Max (American, b. Germany 1937). "Better World" Icon Suite etching w/ hand-drawn colored pencil drawings, 2015. Hand-signed by Peter Max in pencil on lower right. Numbered 365 of 495 on lower left. A deluxe edition from a larger plate, hand-colored with hand-drawn colored pencil remarques. Embossed "Peter Max Copyright" seal at lower left. A beautiful work by Peter Max delineated in his bold linear style with vibrant color juxtapositions and an ethereal theme of beauty. Max presents the profile of head of Eve with a bitten apple floating upon the water below, between leafy trees, joined by two hand-drawn colored pencil remarques - an angel with a heart over the wings at the upper right and a female head in profile with flowers in her hair and a single heart to the lower left, both rendered in violet, azure, and rose. A wonderful Peter Max composition featuring a theme embraced by many Renaissance artists - Masaccio, Titian, and Durer to name a few! Size of plate mark: 11.25" L x 9" W (28.6 cm x 22.9 cm) Sheet: 22.125" L x 19.5" W (56.2 cm x 49.5 cm) Frame: 35.75" L x 32.7" W (90.8 cm x 83.1 cm)
Born in Berlin, Peter Max moved frequently with his family, living in more than six countries until they settled in the United States. Max studied in New York City at the Art Students League, the Pratt Institute, and the School of Visual Art. Max has been revered as a visionary pop artist during the 1960's beloved for his "Cosmic '60s" style, and his style would later evolve to Neo Expressionism. Max employed a bold linear style of painting using bold Fauvist colors and intriguing themes. As he evolved from Pop to Neo-Expressionism, his work became more painterly and sensuous, and today his work continues to inspire young artists. Max’s unique symbolism and vibrant color palette have continued to inspire new generations of Americans throughout the decades.
