* 1971 in Bratislava. Lives and works in Bratislava, Slovakia.
Slovak artist Stano Masár is a playful post-conceptual artist developing a strategy of manipulation, transformation, interpretation, context sensitive, site-specific installations and institutional critique. He advocates the legacy of dada, neodada, Fluxus, minimalism, conceptual art, developing heritage of Kazimir Malevich, Yves Klein, but especially Marcel Duchamp. After critical analysis of art history, destruction and transformation of objects, he is critically turning towards the institutions themselves (“insitutional critique”) and the art world, dealing with the possibilities of showing nothing.
