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.

Work No. 883: This Green and Pleasant Land VIII

This green and pleasant land VIII
This Green and Pleasant Land VIII
Michael St.Mark 2016

Full-swing full pedestrianisation of former pedestrian area within The Spires shopping precinct, Barnet N. London; that formerly held a small central garden with children’s play area, customer seating and tree ( foreground stump, cut and with potentially intrusive roots encased in concrete )

Latest in the long-running LD series highlighting the inexorable terraforming of England by corporate developments, green-lighted often by corrupt local authorities backed by self-serving politicians; into a chronically overcrowded concrete, glass, steel and asphalt sprawl producing ever-increasing levels of stress in the population.
