Mark Leckey

Mark Leckey is a UK contemporary artist (a second Turner Prize winner in these pages after Jeremy Deller, Herb 36) in the tradition of artists like Mike Kelley, moving from medium to medium with ease, searching for another way to rid himself of (or delve back into) his memories and ideas. He’s also a music person, helming a regular NTS radio show, working with artists like Lung Dart, and releasing audio components of his work on labels like The Death Of Rave, Warp, and Boomkat Editions. This is why I’ve been insistent on him being a part of the Herb catalogue.
