Max Knaus: Designer, World Traveler, Anthropologist

Max Knaus has been a Sedona resident for more than 20 years. His formal education as a cultural anthropologist took him to Indonesia where he did research among the indigenous people of the islands of Bali and Papua. His many travels have also led him to writing and publishing cultural travel books.

While traveling through Asia, Max developed a keen interest in Asian arts, particularly Balinese arts. Together with his wife Melati, a native of Bali from a musical and artistic family, he designs and produces unique art pieces that express the traditions and artistic style of the Balinese people.

As a native of Europe, having spent many years in Asia, and now residing among the beautiful red rocks of Sedona, Max is grateful to the universe and he is delighted to share his passion for the arts with you.
