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.

context
__________________________________________________________________________________
Play on the ubiquitous  Untitled title tradition within contemporary art, only in this case placing the word in quotation marks, the intention being to categorize the Work’s actual title as “should be obvious” in the sense that a strong clue to the intended title is to be found within the image itself. Its left to the viewer, therefore, to deduce what the title “should” be.

The Unbelievable Indifference of Strangers VI
c. Michael St.Mark 2010

Latest in the series in which Michael St.Mark explores the dramatic shift in human
demeanour once outside ordinary social interaction with colleages, family and friends.
Highlighting the extreme dichotomies between the “party personality”, the “at home personality”,
or the “at work personality”  …and the emotionless – almost robotic- masks on display when
out and about mixing with “strangers”.
