MANFRED MAKRA MODENA PARK is the current book publication of the Austrian painter. It
presents the most important works painted in the years 2019 to 2021 in his Modena Park studio
in Vienna. Texts by Karolin Schmidbaur Bernd Hackl and the galerist and art manager Thomas
Mark give an introduction into the image concept and art historical references of the current
work cycles and series. With this publication Manfred Makra - who has been active as a fine
artist for 40 years - gives us a first impression of his beginning late work and surprises with
new visual insights concerning color line surface and space. His image concept references
basic architectural priciples as well as influences of the aesthetic of Japanese Zen-Buddhism.
