Wikipedia description:
Mark Alexander (born 1966) is a British contemporary painter based in Berlin whose work explores themes of temporal existence, cultural memory, and the intersection of historical and digital realities. Working through meticulous processes of reduction, erasure, and chromatic transformation, Alexander creates paintings that address what critics describe as "fundamentally disturbing ideas about ourselves and our times", while engaging with canonical imagery from Vincent van Gogh's Portrait of Dr. Gachet to Johann Paul Egell's Mannheim Altarpiece and American cultural symbols. His paintings are held in public collections including the Musée National d'Art Moderne – Centre Pompidou, Paris, and several UK institutions.
