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.

* This series provides an excellent investment opportunity in a brand new art sub-genre within art, where parts of major public galleries are posited as artworks in their own right; thus negating, neutralising and democratizing the anachronistic air of exclusivity and pompous elitism pervading such institutions.

Jack Frost working late again..

Reworking of work 350 from 2009. Topical DN tropical, Mr Frost – although nearing Easter – is enjoying his UK work so much, he refuses to ‘pack ice it in’ and snow shoe-shuffle off to his polar retreat” noitanrebih ” ( reverse hibernation ).

Art should never lose its playful, humorous side
