Is Heinz Mack the most undervalued artist of the 20th century? Join Nordic Art Partners Jeppe Curth and art expert Nicholas Robinson on The Collector's Edge as we explore this provocative question and the genius of Mack, most known as the founder of the ZERO movement in the late 1950s and a pioneering figure in the experiential properties of light and colour in abstraction . We take you through Mack's remarkable journey from his early days at the Kunstakademie in Düsseldorf, to co-founding the influential Zero Movement alongside Otto Piene and Günther Uecker. Discover the core philosophies behind the Zero Movement, which emphasized the power of monochrome, the interplay of light, and the spatial effects of colour. We look at the movement's global impact and the reverence with which Mack was regarded by his artist peers around the world, which encompassed many of the greatest and most prominent avant-garde practitioners of the mid C20th, including iconic figures such as Yves Klein, Lucio Fontana and Yayoi Kusama.From his early sculptural innovations to his recent "chromatic constellations" paintings, we dissect the multifaceted nature of Mack's art. Hear about his critical acclaim, extraordinary and unrivalled exhibition pedigree including the 1970 Venice Biennale, and the puzzle of his varying market recognition and discussions about  why his works remain undervalued today. Whether you're an art enthusiast or a collector, this episode offers compelling insights into why Heinz Mack is one of the titans of C20th modernism and why his legacy is likely to be one to watch out for in the future market. Episode Image: Heinz Mack, Untitled, 2020, Acrylic on canvas, 94 x 72cm (DETAIL) ©️ Heinz Mack, image courtesy Parra & Romero, MadridGet in Touch
