Biography "...I regard him as one of the most brilliant of the younger American painters.He is moving with great courage in a direction that few others find themselves able to go. A certain flatness has come over American culture and in American painting...Mark Weiss, by his tremendous skill in color and gesture,is able to move convincinglyinto a place where the demons and the divinities live and can be seen by us all." Robert Bly, poet and author of "Iron John", 1996 "...Mark Weiss is an artist of immense promise; he is vastly talented and to his natural endowments he adds intelligence, curiousity,diligence, determination and the rare ability to sustain complex work over a long period of time." Leonard Baskin, artist,sculptor of the FDR memorial in Wash.D.C.-1996 "....his paintings have an ancient and honorable view and probably more true than we like to think in this age of electronic management."
