Günter Haese (b*1924, Kiel; d. 2016, Hanover, Germany) studied sculpting at the Fine Art Academy in Düsseldorf under Bruno Goller and Ewald Mataré. After graduating in 1958, Haese worked as a free-lance artist and soon discovered materials like brass wires or coil springs and small wheels of disjointed clocks for his spatial, kinetic objects. Other than the ZERO-artists Haese never resorted to electricity for his works, but rather had them constructed so fragile and delicate, so that they are moved by a mere breath of air.
Haese was a member of the Free Academy of the Arts Hamburg and in 1994 became an honorary professorship for his artistic lifework by the Federal Land Schleswig-Holstein. Haese has partaken in many national and international exhibitions in museums and galleries since the 1960s. He had solo exhibitions at Ulmer Museum (1964), the August Kestner Museum Hanover (1982), the Staatsgalerie Moderner Kunst in Munich (1972) and the Kunsthalle Düsseldorf (1967), the Museum of Modern Art New York (1964) and participated at the 33. Biennale die Venezia (1966) amongst others. Haeses works are represented in several public collections, for example the Museum of Modern Art New York, the Museum Ludwig Cologne, the Tate Gallery London or the Museo de Arte Modern Mexico. Haese won several art prizes, e.g. the Cornelius prize from the city of Düsseldorf (1967) or the Prize from the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation New York (1967).
