Curator:
Werner Spies.
Artist:
Max Ernst.
Exhibition description:
This exhibition presented graphic works and illustrated books by Max Ernst from the years 1914–1974, the period in which the artist devoted himself most intensely to these mediums. Max Ernst: Grafica e Libri featured art from the Lufthansa Collection, on view for the first time in Italy. The survey was completed with selected pieces that belong to Dieter Brusberg, Ernst’s grandchild. The exhibition was also intended as a centennial of Max Ernst birth, in 1891, since its first showing was in Germany in 1991.
