"They say that the first form of grated technique was invented by Max Ernst and is considered originally as the surrealistic technique. This is not just an "inverted" variant of ink drawing (positive-negative) but a technique that speaks with a completely different visual language. Maybe I could say that this is in my personal opinion (!) above all a supple expressionistic technique, where the expression is extremely fine put/render through strong contrast and energetically (more or less) scratch of the scalpel on the ink-coated surface of paper or cardboard."
