Vase of Flowers II

Description of Art: Vase of Flowers brings Peter Max’s unmistakable pop-art energy to a timeless subject. Instead of a traditional still life, Max transforms the floral arrangement into a bold explosion of color and form. The flowers, outlined in expressive strokes, burst from the vase in radiant hues—vivid reds, yellows, blues, and purples—set against a dynamic background that vibrates with energy.

The composition reflects Max’s signature psychedelic aesthetic, where simplified shapes, layered textures, and luminous contrasts create a sense of joy and movement. The vase itself may be rendered in unexpected colors, reinforcing the playful departure from convention.

With Vase of Flowers, Max elevates an ordinary subject into a celebration of life and creativity. The work embodies his philosophy of optimism and imagination, offering a bouquet not just of blossoms, but of pure artistic vitality.
