MarK DAGLEY
For the past three decades, Mark Dagley has displayed his work both nationally and internationally. During the 1980s, Dagley was active in the East Village abstract painting scene and exhibited alongside other pioneering abstract painters, including Max Gimblett and James Nares. His formal interests include grids, dots, tapered lines and other related geometric and neo-optical nuances. For medium, Dagley enjoys heavy impasto, stains and working with a raw canvas. Dagley’s most important exhibition where his work was featured in was the groundbreaking group exhibition “Post-Hypnotic.” “Post-Hypnotic” traveled across the United States from 1999-2001. Dagley’s work has worked with a variety of galleries world wide including Galeria Mar Estrada (Madrid, Spain) and Galerie Hans Strelow (Düsseldorf, Germany). Today, Dagley is a member of American Abstract Artists. His work is often reviewed and discussed in prominent art journals such as Artforum, Artnet Magazine and The Brooklyn Rail. Dagley continues to create art work today in New Jersey.
