Max Conte is a contemporary artist from Ireland whose work blends vibrant abstraction with themes drawn from both urban and rural Irish landscapes. Born in Dublin in 1987, Conte grew up immersed in the visual textures of city life and the sweeping wildness of the countryside, a duality that profoundly informs his art. He studied Fine Art at the National College of Art and Design, Dublin, graduating in 2010, and went on to develop a distinctive practice that spans painting, mixed media, and installation.

Conte’s pieces are known for their dynamic color palettes and energetic mark-making, often referencing historical and mythological motifs alongside modern visual culture. His work has been exhibited widely across Ireland and Europe, including solo exhibitions in Dublin, Cork, and Berlin, and his pieces are held in both private and public collections. Conte currently lives and works on the west coast of Ireland, drawing continual inspiration from the interplay between the ever-changing Irish environment and contemporary social narratives.
