Dorian Grey Gallery, Upcoming Exhibitions - !00% Art - Work by Mark Freeland
100% Art - Work by Mark Freeland Opening Reception: Tuesday March 6th, 6-9PM Exhibition Dates: March 8th- April 1st
"For Freeland, it was necessary always to reach farther, to be more outrageous, to dream up the unthinkable, to surprise, to shock and to affirm relentlessly his own sense of genius. It was always about the art, the performance, the immediate fans, and never about the business. Freeland believed that someday someone would recognize his gift and take care of all the business tasks needed to propel him to stardom. “The guy who finally gets to market my brain is going to be a millionaire,” he once said. But Freeland’s “guy” never showed up. And sadly, some of those whose success he inspired left him behind as well. For example, a 1994 interview in Xtreme Magazine asked Johnny Rzeznick of the Goo Goo Dolls about the music scene between 1979 and 1984. “Those guys,” said Johnny, “especially Mark Freeland, Kent Weber and Dave Kane. They’ve all been working so hard. Freeland kills me. He is a bigger rock star than I will ever be. I love that guy because he’s everything a rock star is supposed to be. Everything is complete excess. Those were the guys who really taught me a lot of what I know.” Prior to Marks death, friends learned that he had been struggling for some time with cancer."
