� Painting and music are equally beautiful, but I had to make a choice�
And now it is in painting that I must find a melody� �

Max-Agostini (1914-1997)

Max-Agostini loved the Arts. When he wasn�t working, he put his brushes aside to play the piano. Ardent music lover, passionately fond of painting, Max-Agostini chose pictorial art to express himself totally. So music became a delight for him and influenced his works. He particularly appreciated Chopin, Schumann and Liszt and often improvised in their styles. He adopted Jean Le Rond d�Alembert�s (1717-1783) remark as his own �Any music that doesn�t visually evoke something is only noise�. Max-Agostini composed his paintings like musicians, making his canvases sing and varying the subjects according his paintings according to his mood and fascination.

Janet Greenberg, Max-Agostini�s exclusive worldwide agent, has shared this love of Art with the painter. She has thus privileged painting, music and cinema in her gallery. Through a selection of thirty canvases, you will discover Max-Agostini�s works regrouping various subjects as landscapes, seascapes, still lifes or views of Provence, of the Berry region, or of Giverny. �Gondolas in Venice�, �Still Life with Peaches and Cherries�, �The entry of the Old Port of Marseilles� and �The Village of Gargilesse� are gathered together in this new exhibition by the painter.
