Artist Profile: Albert Zeeko

Location: New York / Colorado

Biography:
American, born 1961. Self Taught. Studied the Dada, Surrealist and Conceptual Artists of the 20th Century.

Artist Statement:
The cry of rebellion which I utter associates my ideals with those of the Post Conceptual artists. These ideals were not invented by some aesthetic clique. They are an expression of a desire which boils in the veins of every creative artist today.

I rebel against that spineless worshiping of old canvases, which is filthy and worm-ridden and corroded by time. I am sickened by the foul laziness of artists, who, ever since the twentieth century, have endlessly exploited the glories of the New York School of abstract artists.

Living art draws its life from the surrounding environment. Our forebears drew their artistic inspiration from a religious and political atmosphere which fed their souls; in the same way we must breathe in the tangible miracles of our apocalyptic bi-polar contemporary life.
