Max Papart Art
French, 1911-1994
Max Papart (1911-1994), was born in Marseille, France and later moved to Paris where he learned the techniques of classic engraving. One of the most intriguing intellectual concepts which Papart achieved is a "window" through which the viewer senses the past or future, or even another time or place. It has been said that Papart does not "paint," he "composes." His compositions come together in a symphony of line, shape and colour. Papart always believed that each painting has its own meaning and needed no interpretation from him. His paintings, in his own words, 'force the viewer to think, and it is for the viewer to respond to the art based on his own personal experiences (Rogallery). Papart's original art pieces such as this one are auctioned at the world's most prominent houses and are eminently collectible. You will find his works often sold side-by-side with Picassos, Chagals and Braques.to

Somewhere to Dream - still life, hand signed, Roy Fairchild
By Roy Fairchild
Located in London, GB
This serigraph print is for sale from Roy Fairchild's Personal Collection. This print will come with a certificate of authenticity from London Contemporary Gallery and a unique signed letter from Roy Fairchild himself authenticating the work and detailing that this is from his personal collection.
Roy Fairchild-Woodard was born in 1953 in Surrey, England. He currently lives and works most of the year in the peaceful environment of his Country home. The rest of the year he travels throughout Europe; Italy in particular, to obtain new sources of inspiration. His affinity with Italy is the painters of the Renaissance, especially their frescos, tapestries and paintings.
The plasterwork of the frescos is alluded to in his use of plaster as a base for his acrylic and oil overpaints. Also the influence of Egon Schiele and Gustave Klimpt can be seen in his occasional reference of line and decoration.
He received a degree in graphic design and started working under the name Woodard to produce more commercial...

Abstract Oval Screenprint
By Max Papart
Located in Soquel, CA
Modern abstract etching of brown, black, and green shapes by Max Papart (French, 1911-1994). Signed "Max Papart" in the lower right corner, and numbered "36/120" in the lower left. Presented in a new grey mat with foamcore backing. Paper size: 29"H x 21.25"W
Max Papart (1911-1994) was born in Marseilles, France, and learned engraving in Paris in the mid 1930s. He was influenced by Cranach, Delacroix, Matisse, Klee, and his friend Jacques Prevert. He began using the carborundum etching technique (invented by Henri Goetz) in 1960, and though of his pieces as "compositions" rather than "paintings." Papart created art in a "semi-cubist" style, and did not attribute specific meaning to his work, preferring the viewer to respond to the piece in accordance with their own experiences.

From Now to Antiquity
By Max Papart
Located in London, GB
'From Now to Antiquity', oil on canvas, by Max Papart (circa 1950s). A delightfully curious painting very similar in subject and style to another he called 'the Artist's Workshop (1957)'. Perhaps this is another view of his atelier? There is a classical statue of a female figure. To the (viewer's) left of the statue appear the brushes and accoutrements of the artist. Further along may be the canvas on its easel. Although I have speculated about the painting's subject, Papart always believed that each painting has its own meaning and needed no interpretation from him. His paintings, in his own words, 'force the viewer to think, and it is for the viewer to respond to the art based on their own personal experiences (Rogallery). The artwork is in good overall condition having recently been cleaned by an art restoration specialist. It is also newly framed. The artist signed the work in the lower right hand.
