Mark Beck "My paintings are simple in abstract terms and familiar in subject. No matter the subject, my aim is to make visually pleasing paintings that are calm and powerful and that express my vision and emotions." "When you look at my paintings they tell you a story. It is not entirely the story of a beautiful sky or the sentimental idea of a home by the sea. It is the story of your or your neighbor; it is the story of everyman." Beck has established a strong following and his work has been widely exhibited all over America. His influences include Edward Hoper, Jackson Pollack, Mark Rothko and Georgio de Chirico. The choice, perhaps, reveals the underlying complexity of his art where realism and abstraction share the same physical and spiritual space. |
