Scope and Contents
The personal papers include incoming and outgoing correspondence, biographical materials, activity files, exhibition files, publications, and reference files about Heinecken and his career as artist and teacher. They contain little information about Heinecken's childhood, education, or military career.
The photographic materials include many portraits of Heinecken as well as offset plates, prints, negatives, lithographs, contact sheets, transparencies, and tear sheets from periodicals, and other materials used in the production of his artworks beginning around 1960 and continuing to the present. These materials were used in the production and construction of reassembled figures, magazine collages and transfers, offset lithographs from magazines, photograms, solarized and bleached prints, and other works.
The audio-visual materials include slides used in lectures; exhibition installation views; audio tapes of Heinecken's lectures; videotaped interviews; and a film produced jointly with Robert Fichter.
