Mark Laliberte is a practicing visual artist-designer-curator who has exhibited and performed extensively in galleries across Canada and the USA. Though divergent from project-to-project, the artworks Laliberte creates within the context of his practice share certain formal qualities and conceptual concerns. These concerns encompass his multiple interests: design as an expanded super-language; the ritual minutae of contemporary subcultures; the pop codification of death from an existential, secular perspective; the logo as a stand-in for god-worship. Laliberte is the Managing Editor for both Carousel and Descant magazines; he teaches sessionally at the Ontario College of Art and Design.
