Mark David Gray works from his studio 420 S 1st, the heart of the arts district in Milwaukee. He’s shown in regional venues from the Milwaukee Art Museum, West Bend Art Museum, Beloit College/ Wright Museum and the Kohler Art Center, permanent collection at The Iron Horse Hotel, Milwaukee’s premier boutique hotel destination, as well in New York, Stamford Ct., Minneapolis and Chicago.

His art highlights certain notions found in popular history, and with the use of disparate nostalgic imagery, he endeavors to create dissonance in the viewers mind. His original art also prods the viewer towards self-reflection, regarding the place each person plays in community.
