An event organised by TransArts - Transdisciplinary Art"Zink reinterprets
the theme of staged photography in his works. On the one hand he gives the viewer the feeling of having witnessed this ‚fleeting‘
moment only by chance. On the other hand he re-stages subjects as objects and vice versa. Marko Zink photographs exclusively
in analog with cooked film; he describes the resulting decay of the negatives as a deliberate conceptual insertion. With this
concept he shows the proximity of photography to painting and film and opens up its boundaries." (from the text by Maria Magdalena
Pressel)
Marko Zink born in 1975 in Gaschurn in Austria,
received lessons from Ingo Springenschmid and then attended the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna; the master classes for art
and photography, extended painterly space, art in public space, and performance with Eva Schlegel, Josephine Pryde, Franz
Graf, Judith Huemer, Mona Hahn, and Matthias Herrmann.
He graduated from the School of Artistic Photography with
Friedl Kubelka and from the Academy of Fine Arts
in Vienna with Carola Derting. He also studied German language
and literature, journalism and art history at the University of Vienna.
