Description: Artist: Peter Max Title: Umbrella Man III Medium: Hand Painted Acrylic Sculpture Dimensions: 14" H x 10" W x 4.5" D Year: 2015 Inscription: Side of sculpture incised "330668" and written in marker "349817" and with signature and date Documentation: Includes gallery certificate of authenticity Peter Max's Umbrella Man III continues the artist's exploration of his iconic "Umbrella Man" figure, which he first introduced during his "Neo-Fauve" period in the 1980s. This hand-painted acrylic sculpture is a captivating fusion of form and color, blending Max's signature vibrant palette with a soft, pastel-like approach. Crafted in shades of green, purple, and pink, the piece is further accentuated by bold splashes of red and blue, offering a dynamic contrast to the overall serene tones. Max's Umbrella Man represents an everyman figure, portrayed from behind with his umbrella raised high. The anonymous, relatable subject allows Max to focus on the interaction between the figure and the surrounding color, giving him the freedom to experiment with his bold brushstrokes and expressive hues. This anonymity, coupled with the familiar shape of the umbrella, provides a universally recognized yet open-ended narrative, inviting the viewer to project their own story onto the piece. While the Umbrella Man motif has been widely explored in Max's paintings and mixed media work, Umbrella Man III offers a unique three-dimensional interpretation. The sculpture's hand-painted acrylic surface allows Max to bring the vibrant textures and energy of his paintings into the physical realm, offering viewers a more tangible connection to his work. This 2015 edition of Umbrella Man III stands as a testament to Peter Max's enduring creativity and his ability to reimagine his iconic motifs in new and innovative ways. Incised on the sculpture's side is "330668" and written in marker is "349817.” The sculpture is signed and dated by Peter Max and also includes a gallery certificate of authenticity from Modern Artifact. About Peter Max A painter of celebrities and icons, Peter Max is world-renowned for his signature visual language featuring bright nuances of the rainbow spectrum. His colorful body of work embodies the spirit of the psychedelic 60s and transmits its optimism throughout all the prolific decades of the artist's activity. The practice of Peter Max transcends all media, from drawing and painting to sculpture, print and graphic design, while the iconography he employs is highly recognizable and relatable to the broad public. Sometimes described as a neo-expressionist, Max is actually considered one of the most productive and commercially successful pop artists to date. Throughout his career, he collaborated with numerous companies, events and organizations, designing lines for General Electric, and serving as the official artist of the Grammy Awards and the Rock and Roll Hall of fame, but also for five Super Bowls, the World Cup, the World Series, and the US Open among others. He is also the author of one of the better known US postage stamps and he had the opportunity to place his artwork on a Continental Airlines Boeing 777. Six American presidents have been among commissioners of Peter Max's art, while his works were exhibited in over 100 museums and galleries across the planet. Synesthetic Art of Peter Max is eclectic and figurative, always clad in a kaleidoscopic palette. From his memorable Lady Liberty series, over the famous people and imagery inspired by music, to the more recent Obama series and the Masters Series in which he reinterpreted some of the most famous works from art history, we can follow Max's oeuvre that has given him the status of a true American cultural icon. Born in 1937 in Berlin as Peter Max Finkelstein, the artist had an exciting and nomadic upbringing in China, Israel, and France, following the final settlement of his family in the United States. Today, Peter Max lives and works in New York City, NY.
