Print details
The first print graphic works date from 1957.
Heinz Mack experimented a great deal until around the beginning of the 1980s. He produced collage-like works, silver or gold embossings, serigraphs on glass, aluminium or Ultraphan foil on two-colour montages. Mack also used new printing materials such as Iriodin or gloss paint.
Since approximately 1990, the print graphic genre has been determined by classical techniques such as serigraphs, lithographs, and wood and lino cuts. An original graphic was used as a template for a screen print. To this extent, the original graphics and serigraphs show optical similarities.
By contrast, the wood and lino cuts, as well as the lithographs, have been derived from an individually manufactured printing block.
The genre of print graphics and multiples is documented and explained in two catalogues raisonnés.
