Max Beckmann

Max Carl Friedrich Beckmann (February 12, 1884 – December 27, 1950) was a German painter. He is considered one of the most important expressionist painters, despite rejecting the term. After World War I, he was associated with the artistic movement New Objectivity, critical of the state of the country during the Weimar Republic. He left Germany for the Netherlands, in 1937, and moved to the United States, in 1947, where he would spent his final years.[1]
