"Philco" Fine Art Print

Adornato received a degree in Fine Arts from NSCAD University in Halifax, Nova Scotia (2001). Bragging rights over the past decade include exhibits in The Canadian War Museum, The Bank of Canada's Currency Museum, Canada Science and Technology Museum, and the National Art Gallery of Canada for a one-night-stand. In 2002-2009, while suffering from 'future shock', Marc produced a series of artworks entitled "Anarchos Apokalypsis" where he burned, shredded and smashed shit to pieces - then hung it in museums and galleries. His 'assemblage/remix' style continues to be prevalent in his current sculptural work. His latest creations are a historical-postmodern fusion comprised of antiquated objects from the past century, accented with modern technology such as LED lights, MP3 players, and video screens. This series takes an anthropological approach, reflecting past and present art movements, modern critical theory, and issues of our era. Marc is a first-generation Canadian, born in Montreal, Quebec, to Italian/French immigrants. He spent much of his childhood in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia before his family settled in Ottawa, Canada. He creates his original artwork at his 1400 sqft studio, steps away from Gatineau Park, near Ottawa. He is currently loosely represented by UNION 613 and the Ottawa Art Gallery, but is always entertaining other representation.
