Max Herve (1926-2018) - Vrouwen op een terras

Max Hervé (1926) was an artist who had long explored the boundaries of so-called contemporary art. When he was asked to introduce himself, he wrote the following: "The big question for a painter of this end of the century, and certainly for a painter of space, is how to escape from this century, from its dogmatic constraints, the dust of the end of a globalized era in all its cyclonic force of a self-blocking market. It seems no longer possible to define my identity on the basis of a traditional curriculum vitae, and to make use of its satisfying elements that belong not only to evaluative and thinking systems that come from this or the previous century and that in any case no longer correspond to the seed of future horizons." This painting is bottom-right signed by the French artist Max Hervé. However, there are few detailed biographical data documented about him. The main known facts about his life and career are: Birth: He was born in 1926 in France. Membership: He was an acknowledged member of the prestigious French artists’ association Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts. Style: Hervé worked mainly in a French-impressionist style. His oeuvre mostly comprises seascapes, scenes with sailboats, nudes and sunlit terraced gardens with company as in this work. Recognition: In July 1992 he received the official French military title Peintre des armées (specifically within the category Peintre de l’air). Additionally, in the 1970s and 1980s he was a co-organizer of the Biennale de peinture in the French city of Langres."
