MARKO STOUT
Cold and neon coolness personified
Rattle your kinks and think
Under a fedora and behind dark aviators
Whose art is as vibrant as black is his attire
Wings made of strokes of sapphire.
An immortalisation of pop glamour
Vibrant moments when our realities can bleed color and juxtaposition!
Marko Stout's world
A realm of urban art
Ready to be explored
Colors and emotions
Breathing on its own
Bringing through them
New York City's soul.
Marko Stout’s work is an immortalisation of pop glamour; a snapshot of those rare epiphanous vibrant moments when our realities can bleed color and juxtaposition. It stretches beyond encapsulation of aesthetic and extends to an offering of meaning and an extension of culture. The urban landscapes and the people who find rapture in the abstraction of monotony are deftly depicted in the images which violently flips narratives of the human condition.
With a contemporary gaze, Stout salaciously invites the viewer to explore the darker, grittier facets of sexuality whilst alluding to the paradigm-shifting mesmerism which can be found if you allow your vision to fall into the beauty of exploration, expression and erotica.
Accolades may still fall around Warhol as the Art Pop fanatics cling to the nostalgia of his influence, yet, Stout’s exhumation of carnality holds a mirror to the disparity which lingers between true desire, and the filtered experiences we pretend to crave. With cathartic honesty, the real world is put before you, polished with a cinematic infusion of rock candescence. Void of smoke and mirrors, the art lustrously blinks with resonant realism, pulling you from the comfort of archaic Pop Art into a modern realm of unfiltered ardour.

Coolness personified nothing left to rectify
Art is an expression of self, far deeper than the eyes can see!
It connects on a level past vision. Art resonates deep within the soul.
Few hold mastery over manifesting creativity potent enough
to ensnare an audience with its appeal.
But, art visionary Marko Stout, has proven to be one of,
if not the most renowned artists in the modern New York art scene.
His pop art seeks to consume the senses;
a euphoric trip that ends in pleasure unbeknownst to
anything experienced before. It isn’t static, nor lifeless.
His art breathes, moves, lives! It has a voice of its own,
one that blends urban with grit; allegory with imagery;
seduction with ferocity.
Art isn’t made to be seen and forgotten,
nor to be lackluster without passion. Art is vibrant,
beautiful enough to spark inspiration, and breathtaking enough
to linger within onlookers even as time extends to eternity.
Mark Stout art sits at the pinnacle of the creative hierarchy and seems impossible to be dethroned. Each work is without a doubt, a masterpiece; a dance between one’s inner being and the orgasmic allure crafted over canvass. With a contemporary gaze, Marko Stout salaciously invites the viewer to explore the darker, grittier facets of sexuality whilst alluding to the paradigm-shifting mesmerism which can be found if you allow your vision to fall into the beauty of exploration, expression and erotica.
The high-priced fine art market has been in a slump with many New York galleries closing their doors over the last decade. In fact, a 2018 article in The New York Times said the “New York art gallery scene is dead as we know it... however one artist has been proving that the New York market is far from dead. The New York artist Marko Stout, whom many are calling the next Andy Warhol, has reported huge sales at his last couple solo Manhattan gallery shows." Additionally, Stout has been drawing exceptionally large crowds of young enthusiastic fans with older dealers and collectors taking notice of the artist. Marko Stouts’ fans also include celebrities such as Boy George, Charlie Sheen, The Kardashians, Justin Bieber, Katie Homes, Katie Couric and Taylor Swift. In videos posted on YourTube Charlie Sheen said, “Marko Stout is a freaking genius” and Katie Couric called Stout an “artist extraordinaire”. Marko Stout exhibits the same versatility as pop art legend Andy Warhol. Stout, is most famous for his large-scale video installations, films, trademark metal urban print work and acclaimed sculptures.

Images violently flip narratives of the human condition
It's Ash and Neon.
A refined and sensual touch
Captured in people and design
Photography and films meet dreams
While day meets endless nights
Beauty embraces the mind
Immortalized in time
It's alive, out there, in the streets!
