| Summary: | Non-conformist and daring, Heinz Mack has turned his attention to the canvas once more after a break of over 20 years. He translates light, movement and immateriality into the glowing worlds of the colours of the chromatic spectrum and of structures. The artist explains his ideas and sources of inspiration in conversations and letters. Through the exploration of the juxtaposition of colours and visible brushstrokes in the genre of the monumental panel picture, Heinz Mack opens up a view of the infinite, the boundless, the immaterial with his "Chromatic Constellations". The desire to translate the spiritual into painting has dominated art history across the centuries. The publication provides an insight into Mack's collective visual memory through the fascinating comparison with works from Duccio and Fra Angelico to Malevich, Matisse and Newman Non-conformist and daring, Heinz Mack has turned his attention to the canvas once more after a break of over 20 years.
