Max Ernst (1891-1976) is one of the few incontrovertibly great artists of the twentieth century. This book provides a unique opportunity of assessing Max Ernst's achievement. The extensive plate section includes works in all medias and genres -- painting, sculpture, works on paper, book illustration -- and from all periods of the artist's career. In his introductory essay, Werner Spies reviews the artist's oeuvre, pointing to certain basic attitudes and procedures that informed all his work. Essays by other well-known scholars discuss the symbolism of his Surrealist imagery, the influence of Romanticism and of the North American Indians on his work, and his ties with England. Max Ernst's own 'Biographical Note', lavishly illustrated with documentary photographs and further examples of his work, and interspersed with other writings by the artist, provide profound and fascinating insights into his life and art. "Max Ernst: A Retrospective" is an indispensable volume on the life and art of one of the few truly international artists of the twentieth century. -- From publisher's description.

Well known German, American, English, French and Italian writers and art critics, along with poets and boyhood friends of the painter and poet Max Ernst, have participated enthusiastically in this tribute to one of the greatest artists of our time, an artist whose work appears ;more and more to be the most important results, not so much of Andre Breton's "revolution" as of the Dada-Surrealist group to which Max Ernst belonged early in his career.

Focusing on Max Ernst's early Paris exhibitions, which launched his career as major Surrealist One of the leading Surrealists, Max Ernst could justly be described as the greatest investigator of the human consciousness. He created fantastical, apparently inconceivable images that hark back to our inner world, to the childish reminiscences that feed the subconscious. This book accompanies an exhibition at the Hermitage Museum of some twenty paintings and works on paper from the 1920s, Ernst's first French period. Many come from a private collection that has its roots in that of noted Paris dealer Aram Mouradian. The early 1920s were an important period that marked the transition from Dada to Surrealism not only for Ernst but in European art as a whole. In the first half of the decade Ernst produced his so-called proto-Surrealist pictures, in which the artist moved away from avant-garde experimentation towards a more poetic and integral artistic image, starting to experiment with the painting technique itself. Never before shown in Russia, these works represent an important stage in the development of Ernst's output.
