Marek Kvetan studied at the Technical University in Brno, Department of Art Education, and at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bratislava. He belongs to a distinctive generation of artists entering the art scene around 2000. While still studying in the studios of Juraj Bartusz and Daniel Fischer at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bratislava, he began to work with new media, digital image post-production and video.
His interest in new technologies is still essential to his work today – sound, light and digital transformations often become part of sculptural installations or exhibition environments. Established systems and their disruption, the transformation of their purpose or their deliberate visual and functional manipulation serve as a method for Marek Kvetan to comment on contemporary culture, society and their visual symbols.
