Max Ernst


Nice exhibition at the Moderna museet (The Museum of Modern Art). We learned a lot for a change. Will perhaps summarize more later on.
The Max Ernst exhibition displayed his different periods in Germany, France, America and Europe as the exhibitors have written.
I don't know if Germany and France wasn't a part of Europe in those days?
Anyway, the exhibition not only displayed his different whereabouts but first and foremost different aspects of Ernst and his artistic work.
Usually we see similar works of art by Ernst (or other artists) when being displayed but in this exhibition also less known works by the artist had been exhibited.
I might add: Less known to me (Gunnar).
If you would like a more substantial look at the art by Ernst, I recommend a visit to the Museum of Modern Art (in Stockholm).
I hardly think you will be disappointed.
