MACK PIENE UECKER: WORKS ON PAPER from 1962 - 2012

There have been quite a number of ZERO exhibitions in recent years, including important retrospectives at the Solomon R. Guggenheim in New York, the Martin-Gropius-Bau in Berlin, and the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. Unfortunately, few of them have focused on the lesser-known graphic output of the Zero artists. The Mayor Gallery is presenting a selection of works on paper of Heinz Mack, Otto Piene, and Günther Uecker, the three core artists of Zero. These personal and intimate works are not preliminary studies but rather autonomous creations in their own right. They are the medium by excellence that was used by the Zero artists to experiment and through them we can witness their struggles and constant search for new artistic solutions.
