SYNOPSIS

 

In 2016 one of the great and influential painters of our time will be dead 125 years. Time to revisit Schamoni´s film shot on 35mm and now re-mastered in full HD. Max Ernst believed that aesthetic quality was irrelevant to art and concentrated on creating symbols, often portraying men and women as birds or machines. Collector and friend Peter Schamoni portrayed Max Ernst the artist, having filmed and interviewed him over many years. This is without any doubt the ultimate Max Ernst.
