Statement

I started my art journey wanting to be an abstract painter but changed my major to film. I was fortunate to have studied photography under the late renowned photographer Ray K Metzker at The Philadephia College of Art (1971-1975). Metzker was known for his experimental B&W and assemblages of printed film strips. His style taught me that photography is a gateway without boundaries. I use my camera as a paintbrush, photographing colors, textures, and abstract shapes. Ironically, my early work was with collages, heavily influenced by the abstract expressionist Robert Rauchenberg. Today my collage work combines photography and digital painting.  As an artist, I continue to venture and experiment, fulfilling my dream as a boy to break out of the material and devote myself to the artistic journey. Marc built his career around exec producing  TV commercials and videos and opening his agency, “CAM,” in 1987, representing award-winning directors, production, post, and visual effects companies. In 2001 he began the process of leaving his company to have more time to make art. Marc has won multiple awards for both his photographs and collage mixed media work.
