Max
Papart's paintings and graphics are
suffused with sunny humor and the bright colors of
the French Riviera where he was born. Working
in the cubist style, he depicted circus scenes,
flirting couples, soaring birds and similar
cheerful subjects with flat, overlapping planes of
contrasting colors and textures.
Max Papart (1911-1994) was
acknowledged as a master printer of the 20th
century. The Director of the Bibliotheque
National in Paris stated that his aquatints were
some of the most significant prints being made in
France during this era.
His limited editions, many created with texture on
handmade papers, have been a part of our inventory
for a quarter of a century.
