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.

no plan planning
Dada at St.Martins  ( title to be pronounced with a plum in one’s voice )
Art Axis 2012

A clique of pompous and elitist Central St. Martins lecturers and directors captured mid-meeting,  earning  their Arts Council dollops-of-dosh-for-old-rope jobs-for-the-public school-boys & their cronies gravy train cucumber sarnie & champers existences ( phew ).
Nice work if you can get it.

The subtle art of planning without planning – Dada at its finest, chaps.
