artist
Heinz Mack wurde 1931 im hessischen Lollar geboren.

Mack studierte ab 1950 an der Kunstakademie in Düsseldorf und ab 1953 Philosophie an der Universität in Köln. Seine Ausbildung schloss er mit dem Staatsexamen in Kunsterziehung und Philosophie ab.

Zusammen mit Otto Piene bezog er 1956 ein Atelier in Düsseldorf. In jener Zeit beginnt seine Beschäftigung mit den Problemen der Vibration und des Lichts. Am 11. April 1957 veranstaltete Mack zusammen mit Piene in den Atelierräumen der Gladbacher Straße die 1. Abendausstellung. Aus dieser Veranstaltungsreihe ging schließlich die von Otto Piene und Heinz Mack initiierte Gruppe ZERO hervor, die international Anerkennung fand.

Heinz Mack lebt und arbeitet in Mönchengladbach und auf Ibiza.

Features and remarks


Black screen-printed relief by Heinz Mack

Outstanding provenance - From the personal collection of Mack's ‘master printer’ Hans-Peter Haas!

„In 1990, the ZERO artist Heinz Mack decided for the first time to use screen printing to reproduce the hand drawings he calls ‘colour chromatics’, which he has been creating since 1960. In Hans-Peter Hass, the artist found a printer who was able to reproduce his ideas in the best possible way.“

MACK - Druckgraphhik und Multiples. 1991-2000

The silkscreen print, handcrafted by Haas in Stuttgart, is one of X artist's copies. Mack presented the work to his printer as a token of appreciation for his work.

The print on sturdy cardboard has a wonderfully three-dimensional effect. The monochrome composition in finely graded shades of black resembles a sculptural relief. The black square is embedded in a constructive surface structure in which varying applications of colour suggest light and shadow.

This rhythmic work by the Zero artist will enrich any collection of German post-war art.
