After completing his studies at the Munich Academy, Vienna-born Maximilian Reinitz lived in Budapest, Dresden, and Berlin. He returned to Vienna in 1914 and joined the Hagenbund artists’ association in 1920. After 1925, abandoned suburbs and Viennese vedute became the preferred themes of his paintings. His images drew on and shifted between Cubist and Neo-Concrete aesthetics. A characteristic of his compositions is their clear, partly crystalline forms and their homogeneous color treatments. Red Roofs combines interlocking but clearly delineated surfaces with an Expressionist application of color, notably on the surfaces of the walls.
