Work by Mark Raush

          Mark Raush is a New York-born visual artist whose work spans decades of exhibitions, awards, and inclusion in major public collections.

​

         Mark Raush, born in 1952 in Brooklyn, built a career rooted in rigorous studio practice and steady exhibition activity across New York and the Northeast. After earning his BFA from Syracuse University in 1974, he became closely involved with the Delavan Center arts community, producing a long-running series of studio exhibitions that highlighted his evolving approach to painting and handmade paper works. His art appeared in respected juried shows-many judged by influential critics such as Clement Greenberg-and he earned multiple awards for painting throughout the late 1980s and early 1990s. Raush's work has been shown in solo and group exhibitions at venues including the Everson Museum of Art, Skidmore College's Schick Art Gallery, and the Canal Town Museum, and it has been acquired by notable public and private collections such as the Boston Museum of Fine Arts/Hines Collection and the Andre Emmerich Gallery. His career reflects a sustained commitment to material exploration, regional arts communities, and the broader contemporary art landscape.
