Peter Max Interview Showcases Humble Iconic Artist
The colorful artwork of Peter Max is among the most recognizable art spanning generations since the sixties. Max defined pop culture through his talent at a time when the Beatles were changing the world’s outlook with their music.
His openness and willingness to meet new people and experience life for all it has to offer is what keeps him so relevant seeming to never age from decade to decade. The icon is a wonderfully welcoming man with talent that one not only visually sees on his canvases but also can feel in his aura.
Peter Max Is So Much More Than a Mere Artist
The master artist has taken viewers out of this atmosphere and into a colorful cosmic world filled with color and love through decades of war and peace. Max has transcended political party lines getting to know and proudly painting for six United States presidents including painting six renditions of the Statue of Liberty at the White House for President and Mrs. Reagan and painting one hundred portraits of President Clinton spanning 20 feet wide by 5 feet high.
Born in Germany, Max spent most of his childhood growing up living in Shanghai, China where he began to develop his artistic abilities and his true love of art.
