Max Shertz

German expressionism influenced much of Max Shertz' work, and "Metropolis" is in homage to the German expressionist Fritz Lang and his futuristic movie "Metropolis"

From Max Shertz' Essays "Frontiers of Ecstasy"
I found myself in a lasting altered state of the inner artist. My hand would now follow the inner overlay map, my mystic treasure map, leading me, guiding me, allowing me to explore the beyond

For the first time since his passing away in 2009 I am showing the Art of the artist Max Shertz, who lived the last 25 years of his life in a reclusive manner. Max' art goes from figurative in the 70's and 80's to semi-abstract, abstract and starting in the early 90's his art took a different turn. He wrote essays about his process creating "Art from the Unconscious". His essays are compiled under the title "Frontiers of Ecstasy" and can be viewed upon demand from collectors, galleries or other institutions - Christiane Shertz
