Gerd Bucerius Library

Graphics by Max Ernst

Max Ernst was a painter, draughtsman, sculptor - and inventor of new artistic techniques. A facsimile edition of his graphic series "Histoire Nouvelle" is now on display at the MKG library. In 1925, the artist developed the technique of frottage, which enabled him to enter into the hidden realms of reality - surreality - and make them visible. More Information
