MACK
Just Light and Colour
“Regarding light as an infinite source of life and pursuing it with unshaken determination has been both a personal approach and an influential artistic strategy for the pioneering artist of German modernism, Heinz Mack. After spending the years of his youth amidst the cold desolation left by the Second World War in Germany, Mack shaped his art around light, which throughout history and geographies has been the harbinger of a new day and opportunities yet unexplored. Like an avid explorer, Mack has tirelessly sought light and all the colours it reflects, through works covering a broad spectrum that encompasses paintings, sculptures, installations and reliefs. East and West, civilisation and nature, light and darkness merge poetically in the artist’s quest for absolute beauty.
When Mack concluded the works and activities within the ZERO framework in 1967, the artist continued to work intensively as an independent philosopher and artist. His investigative approach to his work began within the Western tradition in which he was born, but went on to draw its strength from his desire to understand traditional Eastern knowledge and its intellectual principles. Within Mack’s oeuvre, in which the artist travels to regions where the natural expression of light is in its most powerful form, ranging from the North Pole to the Sahara Desert, light often becomes both the material as well as the work itself.” (sakipsabancimuzesi.org)
