Zack was an active member of the School of Paris and developed a unique style combining geometric and figurative abstraction, often enriched with motifs inspired by folk art and Jewish traditions.

His visual exploration is characterized by strong expressiveness and vibrant use of color. Léon Zack also delved into drawing and printmaking, and his work remains marked by a constant desire to explore the interaction between space and form. He exhibited in prestigious galleries, and his work continues to resonate in the history of abstract art.
