Mark Cook

Consultant Technician Owner of artist space for hire/use Owner of equipment for hire

I'm a community engagement specialist, historian, curator and technician. I've experience of a range of projects both individually and in collaboration. I'm currently part of the team running the LTB Showrooms as an open access gallery and event space. I worked on several aspects of the 2021 Coventry Biennial. I've experience of curating and installing indoor and outdoor exhibitions. I've helped groups install at Arcadia Gallery, at the LTB and in other venues. I was previously a Photo Miner, and devised their successful outdoor frame system, this appeared last year at The Canal Basin. I'm happy to offer advice on methods of installation.
