"Odyssey of the Mind” 

Tribute to Heinz Sauk-Shubert

The Art Center proudly announces a tribute exhibition to the late Heinz Sauk-Shubert, a prolific artist whose work spans continents and disciplines. The "Odyssey of the Mind" exhibition will be on display at the Jim Reagan Gallery from July through August.

Heinz Sauk-Shubert was born in 1942 in Ratzebuhr, Pomerania, Germany. At 14, he began studying low-voltage engineering, eventually receiving a degree. Heinz's artistic journey began with his first solo show at the Atrium Gallery in Bielefeld, Germany.

In 1960, he immigrated to New York, USA, working for Kliegle Brothers in NYC, contributing to product design, architectural, and theatrical lighting projects, including the Metropolitan Opera House and Lincoln Center. Heinz continued to create art throughout his career, exhibiting a collage series at the New School of Social Research while attending classes there.

Heinz's talents extended to mural painting, with a notable commission from the University of New Hampshire (UNH) to depict Batman and Robin. His work at UNH's Paul Creative Arts Center spanned furniture design, graphics, and sculpture. Beyond these public displays, Heinz was a dedicated painter, collage creator, and architect, driven by a passion for beauty in all forms. This exhibition will feature a collection of Heinz's paintings, drawings, and collage works.

"Odyssey of the Mind" will be on display from July through the end of August, with a reception on Saturday, August 3, from 6 to 9 p.m. Join us at The Art Center, located at 1 Washington Street, Dover, NH, to celebrate the life and work of Heinz Sauk-Shubert.
