MARK T. SMITH:
PAINTINGS, SCULPTURE, WORKS ON PAPER
 
 
Mark T. Smith "Magnetic", Parian Sculpture, 2009




Art should leave you breathless, amazed and wondering, perhaps even terrified or furious – art should bring you somewhere miraculous within yourself – somewhere you may not have known ever existed.” – Mark T. Smith


Relying on a unique visual language instilled with the influences of graffiti and post-pop, Mark T. Smith’s art embraces the classical skills of drawing and painting with the balance of a modern mindset. His commission by Absolut Vodka for the “Absolut Smith” campaign and his recent official poster design for the Beijing Olympics make him a familiar name in the pantheon of contemporary art. This exhibition includes new paintings, works on paper and sculpture.
