In the same year Maatsch joined the «November Group». Annual participation in the "Great Berlin Art Exhibition" followed until 1932. In 1927 Herwarth Walden organized a solo exhibition for him in his gallery Der Sturm. His works have been acquired by better-known private collections, including the Deutsche Bank Collection, Stephan Hupertz, Carl Lazlo, and Alfred and Elisabeth Hoh.
