Bio:
Marc Lepson (b.1970) is an interdisciplinary artist living and working in Brooklyn, NY. He uses drawing, video, printmaking and sculpture, to create images and moods in inter-related works. His work concerns itself with the places in between thought and experience; moments of dislocation within landscape and language. Since the events of September 11 2001, Marcs projects have focused on the political and emotional climate in New York City and the greater US. Working on his own and with activist groups, Marc has done print work for public performances such as Our Grief is Not A Cry For War (2001) and created a solo exhibition examining the current climate of war and the intense scrutiny of immigrants with the US. The exhibition, Breathe: A meditation on claustrophobia, confinement and comfort (2002), will be excerpted in Open House: Working in Brooklyn at the Brooklyn Museum of Art in 2004. Marc earned his MFA at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and has worked as Programs Director and Master Printer at the Lower East Side Printshop, NYC. His work has been included in exhibitions in New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Vienna Austria, Berlin Germany and Torino Italy among others. In 2001 he was the recipient of a grant from the Pollock - Krasner Foundation.
