“There is no substitute for the happiness which colours give
me.” After a long break, Heinz Mack has been focusing intensively
on painting again for over thirty years. A cross-section of his
"Chromatische Konstellationen" from 1991 until the present day
shows how he translates the greatest possible purity of colour,
light and immateriality into a broad spectrum of colour sequences
and structures. Texts by Heinz Mack and Robert Fleck illuminate the
essence of these colour worlds. Colour as light and light as colour
– this represents, as it were, the nucleus of Mack’s painting.
Within this premise he offers us a wide variety: chapters on, for
example, the primacy of colour, atmosphere and nature, space,
movement and geometric forms show the fascinating bandwidth of his
work. The volume closes with an unusual undertaking: in a personal
juxtaposition with works from art history from Duccio to Barnett
Newman, the artist grants us an insight into his collective
pictorial memory.
