’ MÁRK PETŐ INVESTIGATES THE LAYERED VISUAL SETS OF INFORMATION THAT BUILD UP FROM MARKS AND FACTUAL ELEMENTS. HE CAN CREATE DESTRUCTED SURFACES AS WELL OR JUST TURN A PHENOMENON INTO A MICROSCOPIC FIGURE. HE CONJURES PICTURES FROM SUCH TRANSPARENCIES, OVERPAINTINGS, SOMETIMES BIZARRE MERGINGS THAT SHOW THE UNITY AND COMPLEXITY OF OUR MACRO AND MICRO WORLD. MÁRK PETŐ IS A PAINTER REDUCED IN COLOUR, WORKING WITH REFINED TRANSPARENCIES,ALWAYS EXPERIMENTING.‘
