Mark Ther

I regard Mark Ther’s work as classic and extraordinary. Moreover he’s probably our only student artist. Or at least he would like to be. In my selection he is the star. A lot of things were said about him and it would be better if the things we don’t know won’t be completely revealed and will become a part of a myth.

Key to the selection are different approaches of the artists to the the video medium. For Petr Krátký is video a contemporary fulfillment of his conceptual attitude, Mark Ther is familiar with a film language, and Macula uses video as a design strategy.
