Henry Maas

At the forefront of the Fitzroy and Melbourne avante-garde scene since the mid 1970’s, Henry Maas is a well known figure in the City of Yarra.  An active artist and flaneur, Maas was the mastermind and lead singer of The Bachelor’s From Prague jazz band, creator of the iconic Black Cat Cafe in Brunswick St, The Night Cat music nightspot in Johnston St, and the plush art deco Blue Diamond night spot in Queen St Melbourne…Henry Maas is Fitz-royalty.

Maas’ approach to his paintings, assemblages and constructions suggest he is not only an artist and bohemian but a comedian who is delightfully free from social constraints. His work will make you smile.
