Max Ernst (1891–1976): Hop La! Hop La!, 1929/1930

Hop La! Hop La!,



to bring attention to something you

“Hop” or “hopla” is a way to bring attention to something you do. It is common use to say “hop” when completing an action. “Hop” and “hopla” work with everything. If you jump from a small wall, you can say it after jumping.Apr 2, 2019

Max Ernst, the Surrealist artist, who was conspicuous even before World War I for his exceptional gifts and his power to startle and provoke, died in Paris


Ernst was prominent in the Dada movement as well as in the Surrealist movement; he made his mark as painter, sculptor, writer and maker of enigmatic objects. But above, all he functioned as a source of imaginative energy and as a witness to the evolution of the century.

He was an indispensable observer, hut he was also an indispensable participator; a oneman early‐warning system who over and over again suggested that Europe was in a bad way and likely to get worse.

His importance was not so much that he made covetable works of art—though he did Indeed do that, and in great numbers—but that, as much as Sigmund Freud or Franz Katka, he was a part of his time.

Franz Kafka[b] (3 July 1883 – 3 June 1924) was an Austrian-Czech[4] novelist and writer from Prague.






Max Ernst was brought up in the strictest Roman Catholic tradition, but his inquiring and insubordinate nature soon brought him into conflict with his family, his school and his church. Deciding that, smalltown thoughts and small‐town ways were not for him, he became a precocious student both of Nietzsche and of Freud, whose “Interpretation of Dreams” came out while Max Ernst was in high school. He also concerned himself with abnormal psychology and in particular with the artistic achievement of mental patients, which were then beginning to be investigated.

Good Judge of Talent



 Jean Arp, had been a friend of his since 1914; and when Ernst was discharged from the Army in 1918 and made his way back to Cologne, it turned out that he and Arp were of one mind about the state of the world and the state of art.



“We young people came back from the war,” he said later, “in a state of stupefaction at the absurdity, the total swinishness and imbecility of what had gone on for four years. We had to get back somehow at the ‘civilization’ which was responsible for the war.”

「我們這些年輕人從戰爭中回來,」他後來說,「四年來所發生的一切都是荒謬的、愚蠢的和愚蠢的,我們對此感到震驚。我們必須以某種方式回到對戰爭負責的 ‘文明’。


The circumstances of Max Ernst's life did not, however favor a settled domesticity. lit: was determined to get to Paris, where he already had a certain reputation with Andre Breton, the future author of the “Surrealist Manifestoes,” and with Tristan Tzara, one of the founders of Dadaism. His first earls exhibition was held at the Galerie au Sans Parch l in 1921; it consisted of collages that he had mailed in a brow paper parcel, and it established him immediately as an artist conspicuous for his nimble wit., his seemingly unlimited powers of invention and his dazzling way with the French language.
