The oeuvre of Mark Manders (Volkel, the Netherlands, 1968) consists of installations, drawings and sculptures, which he combines into installations and ‘gesamtkunstwerken’, which he often presents under the heading Self-Portrait as Building. The installations are representations of his ideas and thoughts. In 1993 his work was shown at Park Sonsbeek and in 2013 he represented the Netherlands at the Venice Biennale. Since 2017, a large artwork in the form of a fountain stands on the Rokin in Amsterdam. His work is included in several museum collections at home and abroad. Manders lives and works in Belgium.
