We are excited to introduce the MACK FOUNDATION, founded by artist Heinz Mack in December 2024. This non-profit organization is set to officially begin its activities in just a few weeks, with an inspiring lineup of projects and events already scheduled for this year.

While Heinz Mack and his multifaceted oeuvre remain at the heart of the foundation, it is equally dedicated to promoting art, culture, and education in a variety of dynamic ways.

To learn more about our mission and explore the new direction, we invite you to visit our new homepage at mackfoundation.com or simply click the link in our profile.

The entire team at Studio Mack and the MACK FOUNDATION is looking forward to an eventful 2025. We would be delighted if you would stay with us and become part of the foundation community!

„For me, it’s very difficult to think backwards. I prefer only to look forward.“ — Heinz Mack.

The Mack Foundation is honored to share an extensive feature recently published by the Financial Times. In this insightful profile, the artist reflects on a career spanning over seven decades — a journey he describes in „four quarters“, from the radical beginnings of the ZERO movement to his profound exploration of colour and light.

The article provides a rare glimpse into Mack’s creative sanctuary in Ibiza, where his sculpture garden serves as a living dialogue between granite, stainless steel, and the Mediterranean environment. By revisiting the „intellectual vacuum“ of post-war Germany that prompted the birth of ZERO in 1957, the report underscores Mack’s pivotal role in redefining the „vibration“ of modern art.

„There are moments when you choose a colour and know straight away that it’s the right one, even before you’ve started painting; and when that choice turns out to be spot on, I find myself in seventh heaven.“
