303. Homography
Mark Beard is an American artist born in 1956 in Salt Lake city. He lives and works in New York. In the tradition of Marcel Duchamp and his Rrose Sélavy, Mark Beard imagined five alter egos, in particular Bruce Sargeant, an English artist, whose works are part of a homoerotic and sporting universe, but also Professor Hippolyte Alexandre Michallon, a 19th century French firefighter painter and two avatars, Edith Thayer Cromwell, an American avant-garde artist and Brechtolt Steeruwitz, a German expressionist painter, a complex personality straight out of the artist's imagination.
Below are a few examples from one of his artistic impersonations:
the painter Bruce Sargeant (1898–1938).
