Mark Kostabi art features faceless, timeless figures that can be all of us and none of us.

They express the fear of man inside the society, but also a universal language.

My goal has always been to create the most interesting art possible: my art should enrich the life of the observer, be it of a visitor who looks at my paintings in a museum, either of a collector who looks at a Kostabi for a long time at his house, both of a group of students reflecting on one of my ever-growing murals, performed for a public service, my images give joy, even if they tell stories of solitude, confusion and isolation ".
