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. During his time he created the most wonderful hand printed aquatints, carborundum etchings, lithographs and creative collage graphics, which we published. He 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.
