About Michael St.Mark

Conceptual / experimental multi-discipline artist, writer and photographer. Art influencer and founder of London Dada, recalling Dada's original aims and principles as envisaged by it's founder Hugo Ball. Eschews the often politically-motivated taboo on expressions of critical thought within art. Admiring Duchamp in going beyond the seemingly endless infatuation with the ' pretty picture' retinal and instead refusing to accept the standards and practices of an established corrupt art world and creatively stifling conventions that are still considered essential to attain fame and financial success: refusing to repeat himself or to develop one recognizable style to placate the commercial needs of the market.

The Propaganda Party
© Michael St.Mark (31st Dec 2013)

 

Context/purport
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Early New Years Eve street scene, Camden Town London NW1. In the first 3 years of the ConDem’s power-grab, official stats showed the number of rough sleepers UK-wide up by 20%.
Meanwhile the millionaire-to-a-man propaganda party likely as not whooping in the New Year in usual Bollinger-quaffing/sherbet-snorting Hooray Henry style from the uber comfort of their Chelsea town manses or ivy-dripping Rayburn-infested country cottage retreats in rural areas where their second ( or third) homes have jacked-up  house prices beyond the reach of young locals.

Christmas Costa Head

Context
____________________________________________________________________________
Future’s here now – thousands sitting alone in the ubiquitous identikit Costa, brains
swimming in CC’s very own Caffeineplus while pawing at mobile, tablet or lappy,
busy communicating with others far away.
A case of absence makes the sales grow stronger?
