Notes:
Kelly Mark works in a variety of media including drawing, sculpture, photography, installation, sound, multiples, video and public interventions. The Toronto artist says she has, “always had an intense preoccupation with the differing shades of pathos found in everyday life.” Hidden in the repetitive mundane tasks, routines and rituals of contemporary culture, she finds startling moments of poetic individuation. Mark has exhibited her work widely across Canada including at the National Gallery of Canada, the Art Gallery of Ontario, The Power Plant and The Musee d’art contemporain in Montreal. She represented Canada at the Sydney Biennale in 1998 and the Liverpool Biennale in 2006.
Most realised prices include the Buyer's Premium of 18-25%, but not the HST/GST Tax.
