UNCOMMON PETER MAX SMALL SIZE LITHO 1973

This small 4 x 4 ins (image) and total 7 x7 ins, lithograph is pretty uncommon. Named " DAWN", the number of the series 17 of 50 and very uniquely written in ink-pen and in Roman Numeral. It also has the embossed seal of Circle Gallery.



It came on the original Seventies metal frame and in very good condition. Rare items as this one are the ones that a true PETER MAX collector should cherish, not so much the canvases, especially if dated after 2010.Eventually all his older works and objects will have a true historic value that will transcend any monetary component. PETER will eventually be remembered as the great Pop master of the Seventies through beginning of the Millennium 2000.

41st ANNIVERSARY OF PETER MAX Magazine N1

This year 2012 marks the 42nd anniversary of the publishing of the first PETER MAX Magazine. A true representation of that era of changes, colors, music and wild
experiences.



PETER MAX Magazine N. 1, 1970 published by Lee Spiegelman and Ted Cohen. The age of psychedelia and transcendental meditation. In pages 40 to 45, Peter created a small comic strip impersonated by Mickey mouse and himself disguised as Bugs Bunny. In MISTER MOUSE MEETS PETER MAX, the mouse visits Peter Max studio, and is received by "Bugs" disguised as Peter that explains him about the Age of Aquarius and takes him into a weird psychedelic virtual tour.

Enjoy the trip:

PETER MAX STUDIO RELEASES A PAUL McCARTNEY HOMAGE

NY artist Peter Max Studio honors Paul McCartney's 70th birthday.

 

June 18th, 1942 Paul was born, so today Monday 18th 2012, he is 70 YOA. Peter Max will be 75 in October this year, and I'm sure their lives have crossed over more than once. 

 

AM-NY, an urbanite Blog had the chance to interview PETER at his NY atelier, where a composite of Paul was presented to the public. Sheila Anne Feeney was the responsible of this meeting and the post: http://www.amny.com/urbanite-1.812039/ny-artist-peter-max-honors-paul-mccartney-s-70th-birthday-1.3790500.

Peter has the homage collage on his back, and curiously, they are not so original, but they are the same image the PM studio licensed to NEWLIFE Magazine issue July-August 2002, in a variety of color tones:

 

 

Still, it's a very cool artwork.  AM-NY, "And the Sixties feeling"?, "It's spread out everywhere! It's existing," Max said".
