Purple Haze! The Art of Maximilian Feuerring

floral abstract by Maximilian Feuerring circa 1972

Detail of painting


Maximilian Feuerring was born in 1896 in Poland, 
and came to Australia in 1950.


We have collected a number of this wonderful artists works 
and are very proud of our collection.


Not that much is known about Feuerring except that
 apart from being a prisoner of war in Germany for five years, 
he had his first one man show in Rome in 1926,
 and exhibited at the Sao Paulo Bienal in 1965.


He was a prolific producer and his works show his talent
 as a versatile artist and great colourist.


He is represented in all the state galleries of Australia
 as well as
  Washington, Warsaw, Poland, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and Rome.


Max died in 1985 and to this day I think his work is significantly overlooked an undervalued.


Some of my favourite works in our collection
 are vintage paintings by Max Feuerring!


I can't wait to share more of these stunning paintings with you!
