Max Papeschi
After an experience as author and director for theatre, Tv and cinema, Max Papeschi starts with digital-art. As figurative artist his approach with Art-World was an immediate success among the critics and the public. His work Politically-İncorrect shows a globalized and consumerist society and reveals in a realistic ironical way all the horror of this life style. Fro the Nazi-Micky Mouse to the Ronald McDonald Butcher the cult icons loose their reassuring effect and change into a collective nightmare. He has exhibit his works in many galleries around the world. İn
2014 he published his biography: ‘’How to sell Swastikas and Live Happy’’ by Sperling and Kupfer (Mondadori Group).
