Mark [born as Mark Huebner in 1966 in Frankfurt/Main, Germany] is a distinguished artist known for his extensive work in painting, large-scale installations and live performances.
Mark has explored an immense range of artistic disciplines throughout his career.
His work is a deep reflection on our very existence.
His multifaceted approach invites viewers
to engage with existential themes.
“These latest large bodies of paintings are both mystical and allegorical
In MARK, we have a truly Renaissance man…” [Anthony Fawcett]
In 1989, he established his first studio at the Praterinsel in Munich, positioning himself as a pioneering figure among established artists. During this period, he engaged in intensive sculptural work, creating large installations primarily forged from steel, often accompanied by live performances. Collaborating with notable artists he gained significant exposure in various exhibitions in Europe, America and Asia. In 2000, Mark relocated to the Península de Osa in Costa Rica, where he shifted his focus to natural resources, particularly bamboo, leading to the creation of "Bamboo Rocks." He initiated a “lifestyle experiment” called Ojo Del Mar, which evolved into a recognized nature refuge and advocated for environmentally sound building methods, including constructing the tallest natural build tower in Central America. He debuted an installation and live performance project at the Museum of Contemporary Art in San José, further solidifying his presence in the art world. Mark's paintings, characterized by large sizes, feature dynamic strokes combined with innovative techniques, along with his current work including live painting.
His main work cycles are :
‘THE IMPACT PHENOMENON’/ THE MENTAL ASPECT/ MIND ATTACK/ THE ATMOSPHERIC EXPERIENCE/ THE BIOTOPE CONTAINED/ NATURE IN DEFENSE/ MIND EXTINCTION/ DARK LIGHT/ MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE/ INTO EXISTENCE and OTHERWORLD.
He continues to live and work in the Pacific jungle of Costa Rica and in Europe.

ref.: quote:
"I think that the very great artists were not trying to
express themselves. They were trying to trap the
fact, because after all, artists are obsessed by life
and by certain things that obsess them and that they
want to record. And they've tried to find systems and
construct the cages in which these things can be
caught."
