Heinz Mack says about this way of design, which he calls star symbol or Y symbol:
'... that what seems to be so abstract is actually full of immense perceptible presence. This symbol materializes the energy of spatial extension, the incessant space continuum. The direction-free, apparently static space is formed out of a center of energy and radiates - expands. These are symbols for energy in the space which I don't want to be confused with the coordinates: height, width, depth.' (Heinz Mack quoted in Mack... in. Wegweiser zu den Werken von Heinz Mack, Ute Mack (Hg.), Düsseldorf, Wien, New York, Moscow 1992, p. 168)
The stele as a technically perfect work of art becomes a message, becomes the idea of the spirit. Heinz Mack's overall intention, namely to establish a referential weight for the art and its power to fascinate in the environment's social space is visible in his stele.
