He was born in 1961? Geez, he looks like he’s maybe 30 years old. Very insightful person.

[@brandonsimpson1617]

Shaun Clark this presentation gave me a truly better understanding of abstract art. Just as Mark Bradford said of his own work, “I don’t know how to represent all of America but I can bring you into the mind of Mark.” If you have a aversion to identity expression; well of course this work will be distasteful too you, but I’m sure you’d rather see it displayed from the mind of a artist than expressed in our politics. Am I correct?

Mark is the mirror mirror on the wall answering in his art the question amer’ca is asking itself daily “who is the farest of them all?” ... but his truth sets America free of its illusions. Brilliant. Brutal. Beautiful. Giving back to community.

[@MrFalconford]

congratulations m b and best wishes to you, your loved ones and friends this new year

[@tonsfocus]

It's heartening to see success and good fortune come so quickly to such a hugely talented artist. His massive studio compound, assistants, and all the infrastructure he needs to make these enormous works - it's just great that he has what he needs to keep generating his amazing work, and not having to wait till he's had a few decades under his belt. Very inspiring.

Incredible stuff!!

[@miriamcjackson706]

Powerful outstanding from being pushed to the margins by a dark mass in the center of the room (the negative space of turmor) to large scale entrails throwing up of guts (psychic communal temporal purging)to that last moving image of the man walking away (our David) as commentary of a history within a history of the tension and crisis and beauty and inventiveness and resilience. Wow. The gift of the artist is to see the symbols within the context of our times that release us from ignorance. viscerally. That give us a glimpse of something as complex simple unbearable unnameable and unknowable as truth. So glad I learned about this artist today. My heart swells.

[@shaunclark425]

ARTISTS ARE TO CREATE INTERESTING VISUAL WONDERS ..THATS IT... EVERYTHING ELSE IS BULLSHIT AND PROPAGANDA...

[@shaunclark425]

WHAT TRUTH?.. NO HES PUSHING THE MYTH OF THE OPPRESSED BLACK AND HISPANIC PERSON.. THE MYTH THAT GAYS ARE OPPRESSED... DEAR GOD WHEN ARE THESE PEOPLE GOING TO STOP THEIR IGNORANT PITTY PARTY??

[@happylindsay4475]

Miriam C Jackson That was beautiful. Artists are truth seekers and tellers. Those who have the eyes to see the heart to feel the WILLINGNESS to expand how we experience and expect from the world. Artists are prophets and visionaries leading us into the beauty of the unknown.

[@pedromarques3539]

I like his work but his he just going to use posters and paper the for rest of his life. He is very innovative and I have been following his work already for awhile but after five years I am expecting some sort of evolution and a development from his work. This is not a critic I am just waiting for the best of him and what he will be able to create in the future I think it will be very promising and inspiring for the young artists.

[@Toto-mh2pn]

[@edisoncummings2970]

[@RenegadeTimes]

A matriarchal black society. I'm shocked. right

[@tommyguns1845]

This is not art, this is fashion with material. Has nothing to do with classical painting or drawing. But there is a lot of this stuff in the artworld. There should be two types of art, one for skill, natural talent and another for people who are able to create things out of materials. Reminds mw of those shows who give you an hour to create something with a theme in mind. Those are not true artists those are people with creativity. A true artist never does things based on what other people want, they do things for themselves even if no one would ever see it or buy it. These other people are created for commercialism .

[@matthewjackson9615]

It's almost axiomatic that artists talk the standard "art talk - highfalutin sounding inscrutable gibberish". Perhaps they feel that by doing this it gives them a sense of bearing and gravitas. Does art have to be verbally described ?

[@loisshukes8842]

Matthew Jackson I’m an artist and I totally agree with you about the “art talk”. I HATE IT. Sadly it’s what Gallery’s, artist statement and anybody of important want to hear or else they feel you don’t know what your doing. I did opening for four years and finally just quit because I couldn’t stand all the phony bull Do I still make art. Yes. why. Because I have to.

[@timwatley4793]

Good artists talk less shit.

[@annaj.6577]

Many artists just don't have anything interesting or well-thought-out to say about their art practice, because it comes from some hard to locate and name source of emotions and the belief that their emotions are superbly rich and unique. This artist's story is utterly interesting and I enjoyed it tremendously. It is very important for an artist to verbalize thoughts, purpose, etc., to communicate with the audience. There is no inner reality without the language, there is no 'soul', there is no auto-reflexivity without the language. I believe that if you cannot explain what you do and how you do it - you don't know what you do. And that is also ok, many artists are driven by the emotions only. Great talk

[@shaunclark425]

THAT THE GAME...AS AN ARTIST MYSELF I CAN TELL YOU THAT THE 'ARTITS STATEMENT' IS AS CREATIVE AS THE WORK...JUST ENJOY THE ART AND FORGET ALL THE PROPAGANDA AND BULLSHIT...

[@shaunclark425]

ITS ALL LIES TO IMPRESS... DONT BE DUMB ENOUGH TO TAKE ANY OF THE BULLSHIT SERIOUSLY....REMEMBER PICASSO ONLY EVER STATED ABOUT THREE SENTENCES ON WHAT HE DID AND LOOK HOW MUCH HE CREATED...

[@goldenspark333]

Do heterosexual black men have opportunities in the visual arts world. Ive notice alot of gay black men becoming stars and successful in the visual arts world. But no heterosexual black men. Should we give up seeing theres no opportunity for us other then nba nfl and becoming a rapper (trapper) Smh?

[@agneswaruguru2336]

Please see work by Hank Willis Thomas, Kerry James Marshall, Glenn Ligon, Kehinde Wiley, Yinka Shonibare, Barkley L. Hendricks, El Anatsui, Eric N Mack(emerging artist) these are a few heterosexual black male artists off the top of my head, this should get you started as you discover more people.

DOESNT MATTER YOU SEXUALITY, COLOUR OR GENDER... YOU HAVE TO CREATE ART PEOPLE WANT AND BE GOOD AT SELF PROMOTION THATS ALL... THE IDEA OF 'PRIVELEDGE' AND ALL THAT IS LIES FROM TH LIBERAL LEFT WHO THINK THEY ARE ENTITLED TO STUFF BECAUSE THEY WANT IT AND PUSH THE ANTI-STRAIT, ANTI-WHITE, AND ANTI-MALE AGENDA...

[@pedromarques3539]

I kind like the idea of his work but honestly he is not creating anything new to the artworld. He is literally collecting trash and making millions of dollars from it. The ridiculous artworld selecting their friends from their circle, this is not innovative it doesnt require any skill to collect trash from the streets and hang it onto a wood platform. hahahahah basically I only can consider this a trash design a type of wall paper for the ignorant s that believe this will be the biggest hit of the art market.

People gor AIDS through blood transfusions. Look up Paul Michael Glazer's wife, Arthur Ashe etc. Get the facts!

[@ProducoesRecicla]

There is a big I in all your work, Mark. I'm not an official critic, but from what I saw, it just looks like a Rauschenberg piece done by other guy with different problems and probably more self centered. Really cannot understand the why of if, but again, i'm not a critic. If you see it without that small context that is life is revolving, you might find that emptiness that we normally see in this type of practice. It is not the viewer that is empty, no, it's just that your language is too complex where the reality is very often quite very simple and subtle. I recommend shoemaking. Lot's of honest work in there and you'll be making something that has a real use. Good luck!
