Quote
“The line is Max Stock's artistic means. With it he depicts, he creates anew: the images of things or of people. The line does not appear in nature, it can only be thought or created. Max Stock achieves similarity and accuracy with lines, creates images that provide more information about his view of the little things in life in this big city of Berlin. ” Reinhard Kraetzer , 2012
