- About the artworkTheo Mackaay (*1950) Utrecht. Na de steenhouweropleiding in Utrecht studeerde hij van 1971 tot 1976 aan de Gerrit Rietveld Academie en van 1976 tot 1978 aan de Rijksacademie van beeldende kunsten in Amsterdam. Mackaay gaat uit van herkenbare vormen: vrouwen, mannen en dieren. Maar allemaal met een soort verwijzing naar de oervorm ervan. Archetypische motieven zoals krijgers, vrouwen, paarden, boogschutters, liefdesparen, gecreëerd met een heel eigen signatuur. Het resultaat is telkens weer verrassend en overtuigend Mackaay. Als voorbeeld van die uitdrukkingsvorm kent u ongetwijfeld het Gouden Kalf, de grote prijs van het Nederlands Film Festival, die in 1980 door Mackaay werd ontworpen in opdracht van Jos Stelling, filmregisseur en initiatiefnemer van het festival.
