Max Ernst byl německý malíř, který velkou část života strávil ve Francii a v USA. Studoval dějiny umění, filosofii a psychologii, jako malíř byl autodidakt. Patří mezi zakladatele dadaismu a surrealismu. Ve svém díle používal málo běžné výtvarné techniky, z nichž některé sám vynalezl. Významná jsou rovněž jeho díla sochařská. Měl velký vliv na americké umění 2. poloviny 20. století, zejména abstraktní expresionismus. Wikipedia
