Mark Spain is one of the UK’s most distinguished contemporary artists. His distinctive use of strong, dark colours and dramatic dance postures give his work a drama and beauty that makes them stand out from his contemporaries. This quartet of solo dancers is a stunning example of Mark’s unique ability to create energy and movement. His painterly approach, using layer upon layer of brushstrokes, creates a tapestry of textures that brings each figure to life with intensity, emotion and flair. Mark has been described as the natural successor to the painters who have inspired and influenced the progression of his style, including Degas, Mucha and Singer Sargent. His reputation has been forged over many years as a major artistic force, first in the UK and then on the world stage.
