Book excerpt: "This book offers the first overview of Mack's philosophy of art as well as his multifaceted oeuvre. A sculptor and painter for more than sixty years, Mack has created a wide-ranging body of work, starting with the ZERO period around 1960 and continuing in the present day. As this book shows, the essential aspects of his works--including the significance of light, structure, and color--are portrayed with often surprising perspectives. The authors accompany Mack in his constant search for a new concept of art, following him from ZERO through his legendary Sahara Project, a series of installations he made in the Tunisian desert from 1962 to 1976, to his light art and most recent paintings. Throughout, they discover little-known connections to minimal art, land art, Yves Klein, and Constantin Brancusi, among others. This journey through Mack's rich oeuvre culminates in a look at his passionate plea for the idea of beauty in the twenty-first century." --Publisher's website.

Book excerpt: ZERO: Countdown to Tomorrow, 1950s-60s, is the first large-scale historical survey in the United States dedicated to the German artist group Zero (1957-66). Founded by Heinz Mack and Otto Piene, joined by Günther Uecker in 1961, the group expanded to include ZERO, an international network of like-minded artists who shared the group's aspiration to redefine art in the aftermath of World War II. Featuring more than thirty artists from nine countries, the catalogue explores the experimental practices developed by this extensive network of artists whose work anticipated aspects of Land art, Minimalism, and Conceptual art. The publication is organized around points of intersection, exchange, and collaboration that defined these artists' shared history. Among the themes explored are the establishment of new definitions of painting; the introduction of movement and light as both formal and idea-based aspects of art; the use of space as subject and material; the interrogation of the relationship between nature, technology, and humankind; and the production of live actions or demonstrations. At once a snapshot of a specific group and a portrait of a generation, this title celebrates the pioneering nature of both the art and the transnational vision advanced by the ZERO network.

Book excerpt: "In 1956, unlike art informel, Mack developed his first Dynamic Structures - paintings in which in a singular manner a painting of light is contrasted with traditional colourism and structure replaces composition. He created new surfaces which appear to vibrate and which give the impression of three-dimensional reliefs by means of a use of colour which was increasingly reduced to black and white and grid-like structures. Despite the radical restriction of means no two paintings are alike. In its focus on the early works of the ZERO period, this volume provides an indispensable key to an understanding of Mack's work as a whole"--Publisher's website.

Book excerpt: "Palazzo delle Papesse Contemporary Art Centre presents a major exhibition showcasing the German movement, Zero Group, and the origins of kinetic art in Italy, opening on May 29th. The selection of works on display covers the period going from the late Fifties to the mid-Sixties. The curators, Marco Meneguzzo and Stephan von Wiese, have focused especially on the founders of Zero Group: Otto Piene, Heinz Mack and Günther Uecker. The same years saw the beginning, in Italy, of a series of related artistic movements - such as Azimuth and the Gruppo T in Milan, or the Gruppo N in Padua - which will be represented in the show through a wide anthology of works. The retrospective aims to provide a portrait of the moment where the paths of the three German artists met and joined, originating one of the most interesting artistic trends to see the light during the second half of the Twentieth century. At the same time, the show as a whole intends to provide an update on the artistic results the members of the group independently achieved after their separation in 1966. To this purpose, each of the three artists will display a work specifically produced for the Papesse show. Moreover, the exhibition also showcases the works of those Italian artistic movements that, while collaborating with the Zero Group in Europe during the Sixties, developed their own, autonomous artistic narratives. The exhibition takes its first steps from the origins of the Zero Group in Germany, acknowledging the explicit references of those early works to artists such as Manzoni, Klein and Fontana; it then moves on to Italy, highlighting the close affinity of the German group with the dynamics of Italian artists of the early Sixties, and the motivations behind kinetic art and programmed art."--Kunstaspekte website.

Book excerpt: The sculptural relief technique is an integral part of Heinz Mack s extensive oeuvre. With his so-called light-reliefs he examines what is at the core of his artistic practice: the interaction of light and surface. This publication provides a comprehensive overview of Mack s reliefs from 1952 to the present day. Heinz Mack, born in 1931, is one of Germany s most important artists. As the co-founder of the ZERO art movement, he is deeply rooted in the European avant-garde and his oeuvre is an essential part of recent art history. Mack coined the expression light-relief as early as 1958. These reliefs play an important role in his wide-ranging work, and they allow him to explore the interplay of light and surface, space and structure, and color and rhythm. This generously designed volume shows more than 250 works by Heinz Mack, complemented with enlightening articles by renowned art historians. "

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Limelight). Looking back on a century that witnessed the emergence of motion pictures to become, almost immediately, a dominant cultural force in our lives, this penetrating and provocative book argues that "movies (like cathedrals) cannot help but display the subconscious impulses oftheir society." From D.W. Griffith to the Marx Brothers to film noir, "what are conceived and consumed as innocent pop movies ... are in fact manifestations of wild horror, superstitious ignorance, fatalistic dread and bigoted savagery."

Book excerpt: With the first major presentation of Op Art and Kinetic Art in Scandinavia for more than 50 years, Louisiana opens the door to a visual experimental laboratory with the whole range of media and techniques. 'Op Art' is an abbreviation of Optical Art and describes works which use ingeniously crafted optical illusions and effects that go straight to the core of our visual sensory apparatus. The movement had its inception in the middle of the 1950s and its glory days in the 1960s, when it established itself internationally across political and cultural contexts. The artists were preoccupied with science, the psychology of perception and the new technology of the time ? and turned their backs on old-fashioned storytelling and romantic sensitivity. While Kinetic and Optical Art originate from a particular time, the results are surprisingly timeless, and the movement has left striking marks in contemporary visual art and culture. The direct appeal to the senses is unabated ? and is effective today in a mixture of instant fascination and nostalgia.00With around 100 works and more than 40 artists, including Hungarian Victor Vasarely and English Bridget Riley in two of the main roles, the exhibition opens the door to a visual experimental laboratory with the whole range of media and techniques.00Exhibition: Louisiana Museum, Humlebaek, Denmark (04.02.-05.06.2016).
