BIO
Mark Mann received his BFA degree from the College of Santa Fe, Santa Fe, New Mexico. Upon relocating to New York City, he continued an artistic career and gained first-hand experience through assisting a number of accomplished, New York artists such as Petah Coyne, Carol Hepper, and Donna Dennis. From 2001 - 2010, his artwork was represented in New York City by the Laurence Miller Gallery. Projects with the gallery included two solo exhibitions of photo-based prints, Wish You Were Here (2001), and Are We There Yet?(2003), as well as the publication of the limited-edition portfolio Last Resort (2005). His artworks have been exhibited in various US and European galleries, as well as such art fairs as Art Basel, Paris Photo, ADAA, ARCO and Art Miami, and has been purchased and collected by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, the Norton Museum of Art, Palm Beach, Florida, The George Eastman House, Rochester, New York, and the Sir Elton John Collection. More recent artworks focusing on painting and sculpture have been exhibited with the Owen James Gallery in 2021. Mark Mann currently lives and works in the Catskills, New York.
