Max Hattler

Reminiscent of the angry baroque of a peyote-addled Disney, Max Hattler has reinterpreted some of the work of the renowned-by-a-handful automatic painter Augustin Lesange.

1923 is based on Lesage's painting 'A symbolic Composition of the Spiritual World' from 1923:

1925 aka Hell, is based on Lesage's painting 'A symbolic Composition of the Spiritual World' from 1925:

One can only wonder what happened to Austin in 1924, but I imagine it scared the shit out of him.
