    , b. 1937
    Peter Max (American, born 1937) is a German-born artist identified with the psychedelic visual culture of the 1960s and the broader Pop era. Known for radiant colour, cosmic motifs, and optimistic symbolism, his imagery became widely reproduced across posters, media, and commercial collaborations. Max’s work sits at the intersection of fine art and mass culture, with a style that embraces spectacle and accessibility. His distinctive graphic vocabulary helped define a period look that still reads instantly today.
