Max Hayslette

Max Hayslette was born in Rupert, West Virginia in 1930. After his one-man show in 1946 he began his formal art training at the American Academy and completed his studies at the Art Institute of Chicago in 1952. According to Hayslette his creative process begins in his head, the combination of a long distance between memory and imagination. Memory colored by imagination is the root from which all his images grow. He studies a subject, mentally rearranges the parts into an new image with a new spirit which is his own. Hayslette also gains inspiration from his love of travel. The architecture of China and Japan moved him to design a pagoda which serves as a studio in Puget Sound. Hayslette is represented in over three hundred private, corporate and public collections including the Rockefeller Foundation, Union Carbide, IBM, Stanford University, the U.S. Embassy in Australia, and the Ford Motor Company. Since the 1950's he has one several awards for exhibition and interior design. His exhibitions include: Feragil Gallery in New York City, the Findlay Gallery of Chicago, the Seattle Art Museum, the Illinois State Capital, Prints '80 Expo of New York City, Winn Galleries of Seattle, the Incurable Collector of Beverly Hills.
