Theo mackaay's golden calf who doesn't know him?! A beautiful image, now for the enthusiast!
Mackaay grew up in Utrecht. In 1970 he started training as a stonemason and laid the foundation for further development as a sculptor. He studied from 1972 to 1976 at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy and from 1977 to 1979 at the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten in Amsterdam.
Sculptor & Painter Edit Since 1980 he has been working as an independent artist, both as a sculptor and as a painter. Mackaay's style can be described as deforming figurative, inspired by Pablo Picasso, Marino Marini and Ossip Zadkine, among others. In 1980 he designed the Golden Calf, the trophy that is awarded during the Netherlands Film Festival. The trophy awarded by the BV Popprijs is also a design by Mackaay from 1984. Other prizes designed by him are the incentive prize for companies for employing the chronically ill (1996) and a prize for the Xena foundation. (2002).
In 2005 he traveled to China, where he would work for 2.5 years, resulting in several large bronze sculptures.
Mackaay exhibits at home and abroad and had various solo exhibitions in, among others, Morren Galleries in Amsterdam and Utrecht, the Carlton Hotel in Cannes (2015) and the Amstel Hotel in Amsterdam (2016).
