Biografía
Max Ernst was a German-born painter and sculptor who moved from Cologne Dada to the centre of Paris Surrealism. He invented or popularised techniques such as frottage, grattage and decalcomania, and built collage novels and dense, hallucinatory forests and cities. Exiled to the United States during the Second World War, he influenced the young New York School before settling in France, where he took citizenship in 1958. His market is deep in prints and works on paper, while major paintings and the bronzes of the 1940s are scarce. The record is the bronze Le Roi jouant avec la reine (1944), sold for 24.4 million dollars at Christie's New York in 2022, while recent sales have mostly been below one million.
