Robert Flack was born in Guelph and moved to Toronto to study at York University. He began working at Art Metropole in 1980, where he acted as a layout artist on many General Idea-related projects such as FILE Megazine. His work was concerned with psychic energy and expressed an otherworldliness, a quality that became amplified with his HIV sero-conversion in 1988. From that point forward, Flack's work focused on the internalized realms of the chakras and the "etheric body." Preceding his death in 1993, Flack exhibited nationally and internationally in Berlin, Vienna, Amsterdam, and at several venues in Canada.
