HENRY STAG

Henry is son of parents of Croatian & Hungarian origin. Most of his life he spent in Berlin.

At the beginning of 80`s he started to work with many international musicians and visual artists on different music productions:

Among others with Potch Potschka (Spliff, Nina Hagen Band), Danny Deutschmark (Klaus Lage Band), F.J. Krüger (Ideal), Paul Lukas (Element of Crime), Reggy Worthy (Ike & Tina Turner, Peter Maffay etc.), Zam Johnson (Stevie Wonder, Tom Patty, etc.), Mack Goldsbury (Frank Sinatra, Cher, etc.), At that time he also worked on different film music broadcast productions for German television.

Since 2000 his work is mostly in the field of new media. He have been specialized in web design and web programming. Because of his passion for contemporary music, since 2007, with the support of leading music-software production companies and legendary "Neuen und Avantgarde Musik", he is permanently updating his own contemporary music "Sound Of Cities". Here are represented artists such as Hans Joachim Irmler (Faust), Daevid Allen (Gong, Soft Machine), Amon Düül II, Dieter Moebius (Cluster), Prof. Paulo C. Chagas (Former sound director and composer-in-residence at the Studio for Electronic Music at WDR Radio Cologne with Karlheinz Stockhausen.), Oscar Wiggli, Francois Bayle (From 1966 - 1997 director of the Groupe de Recherches Musicales / GRM and the Institut national de l'audiovisuel / INA.), Prof. Silvio Foretic, to name just few.

From 2012 he spent more and more time with a collecting of modern Art, and also started the "Art Agency" which is presenting only few exeptional Artists.

"A short study on concept and conception of a picture, art of painting, figure drawing and short descriptions of artistic works encapsulated in Henry Stags collection, projects both material and spiritual value of a painting and the art of painting which Henry encourages, produces and promotes.

Visual repertoire, by means of motives and exceptional art, ranges from hyper-image, pop-art variations, through harmonious and spiritual fantasies, optical hallucinations, all the way towards abstract emotional and mental conceptions and erotic sublimations - connecting what cannot be connected and harmonising what is seemingly disharmonious.

Henry collects paintings with diligence and by using a visual hybrid unifies what is, at the first glance, non-unifiable - established, excellent German and Croatian artists whose diverse poetics are connected by skill and craftsmanship of pictorial and the value of the presented visualisations. It is a praiseworthy constitution and the intertwining of international hands. We consider Henry Stag’s collection of paintings, adopted by consensus, as a narrow concept of image within its broadened sight."
