Morning After The Max Game

Ideally, THE MAX GAME pages should be read in reverse order

Today is the morning after Max Ernst & Rene Magritte
began their surrealismo chess match.

By that time, the editorial staff of ART DAILY NEWS
had prepared Tuesday's edition.

"Pablo Picasso: Family Album" brings together portraits from collections of artist's heirs


As the retiring chess players were admiring the cover photograph,
an assistant editor said to them, sotto voce:

The brother and sister are named
Chimpito & Lucy

Transfixed by that information,
Professor Magritte replied:
"They are obviously the product of perfect parenting"

Max Ernst added:
"Somebody ought to market their parents' playbook"


The last words of THE MAX GAME had been spoken.

But another image of Max Ernst appears here.
