“ELECTRONIC MAN” is a rare masterwork on paper by highly regarded, internationally recognized artist Max Papart, a protege of Joan Miro insofar as his playful images and works using the techniques of aquatint and carborundum in the creation of his hand made printing plates. As the noted critic André Parinaud put it, “We are going to rediscover Max Papart as one of the masters of the second Cubist Generation”. 

This print was printed from hand made plates using aquatint and carborundum with embossing and hand printed in 28 colors. The image size is 22 X 30 plus margins. It was produced in 1984 in an edition of only 60 numbered plus XXV (Roman numbered). The print is beautifully framed in a high quality frame costing over $1,000.00. Both the art and frame are in ‘like new’ condition.

This is a truly gorgeous print of extraordinary quality, representative of the works of this great artist. Thus, I have added a second picture showing the framed piece on the wall in our home so it’s visual effect can be appreciated.

Max Papart was born December 14, 1911 in Marseille, France. After studying at the Ecole de Breaux-Arts, in 1940 he decided to devote himself entirely to his painting. In 1945, following WWII, his works were shown in many exhibitions throughout France. Papart’s style evolved into non-figurative expressionism. Developing into a master of etching, he was appointed an Assistant Lecturer of Etching in Vincennes University in 1969. During this period, he illustrated numerous books and designed bronze medals for the French Mint.

Graphic works by Papart were created at leading ateliers in France including Atelier Dutrou; Pierre-Pichard; Maurice Felt; Grapholith and Gourdon for lithographs. The qualities of Papart’s art are logic, dignity and simplicity. Above all, they exhibit the property of being heir to the classical past and are distinctively and quintessentially French.

Max Papart, and his contributions to 20th century art, are known throughout the world and anyone should be happy and proud to own and enjoy the art of this great master.
