Bill Mack is unquestionably the world’s pre-eminent relief sculptor alive today. Fully self-taught in his art, he combines low and high relief, incised lines, and elements in the full-round in sculpture works that are light enough to be hung on a wall, directly involving the viewer in a 3-dimensional experience, both textural and tactile, that is often startlingly real.

Mack holds exhibitions in galleries from New York City to Beverly Hills and from Tokyo to Frankfurt. His work is in the collections of 3 former US Presidents, numerous Hollywood actors, international business leaders and renowned art aficionados. His piece entitled "Lady" is part of the permanent collection of the Statue of Liberty National Monument on Liberty Island, and has a sculpture of basketball legend Kareem Abdul Jabbar hanging in the NBA Hall of Fame.

Mack’s studio and gallery is located in Minneapolis inside a castle he has named “Camelot” which also houses his extensive and rare Hollywood memorabilia collection.

Gandhi

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (2 October 1869 – 30 January 1948), also known by his honorific title Mahatma Gandhi which means ‘Great Soul’, was the pre-eminent political and spiritual leader of India during the Indian independence movement. He was the pioneer of satyagraha—resistance to tyranny through mass civil disobedience, a philosophy firmly founded upon ahimsa or total nonviolence—which led India to independence and inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world.

The quote “Where there is love there is life” is found in chapter two of the 1958 book All Men are Brothers, Life and Thoughts of Mahatma Gandhi as told in his own words and provides a sourced reference.

The full quote of Gandhi reads “There only is life where there is love. Life without love is death. Love is the reverse of the coin of which the obverse is truth. It is my firm faith. . . that we can conquer the whole world by truth and love.”
