Mark Beard Figurative Paintings
American, b. 1956
Contemporary New York City-based artist Mark Beard has long demonstrated command in a variety of mediums — he works in oil paint, bronze, ceramics and more. Beard is known mainly for his portraits and figurative paintings, but he is prolific in figurative drawing and nude photography as well.
Beard was born in Salt Lake City, Utah. In 1986, he began working as a set designer, and for the next decade, he created more than 20 sets in New York City, London, Frankfurt, Vienna and Cologne. As a painter and printmaker, Beard didn’t wish to confine himself to a rigid style and instead sought to explore Impressionism, Art Nouveau and other movements in a range of mediums. In order to freely move from one style to the next, Beard created several different personas, assigning a specific biography to each one.
Beard's most prominent artistic alter ego is Bruce Sargeant, whom the artist has positioned in exhibitions as an early 20th-century painter. Beard's work as Sargeant is a detailed study of the male physique. The paintings often feature sculpted athletic men engaged in physical activities like wrestling and rowing. The work is steeped in homoeroticism, and the artist’s name itself is a reference to painter John Singer Sargent — while he’s best known for his Edwardian-era portraits, John Singer Sargent also created murals and drawings of male nudes that were similarly reflective of a homoerotic sensibility.
Beard is also an accomplished landscape painter. His great-grandfather, George Beard, was a regional painter and photographer of the Rocky Mountains. Mark spent summers at his grandfather's 19th-century log cabin retreat as a child. These formative experiences are reflected in his own stunning landscape paintings.
Beard's artwork is held in many high-profile museum collections, including the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Museum of Modern Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
Today, Beard resides in the Manhattan loft that he purchased in 1994 with his partner, James Manfred. It serves as both his home and his studio. The space is filled with his oil paintings, drawings and sculptures.

By Mark Beard
Located in New York, NY
A classical anatomical figure in an artist's studio, surrounded by brushes and a palette, with muted tones creating a contemplative and intimate atmosphere. Contemporary figurative painting by Mark Beard [Bruce Sargeant (1898-1938)]
Artist’s Studio

$4,000 + $300 framing
The pure and brilliant world of Bruce Sargeant’s art seems terribly removed from our own, unhampered by the
prevalent inconsistencies of today’s world. Peopled with comely thoroughbreds, his paintings project a world vision
unchanged from the models cherished by idealist writers like E. M. Forster and Rupert Brooke in that golden decade
that led up to the Great War. Neither buff nor narcissistic, his fair-haired young athletes pose, somewhat
uncomfortably, before the painter’s gaze, not wanting the attention yet feeling their duty to submit. Though
tantalized by the New World dabbings of Robert Henri and John Sloan, Sargeant found his true inspiration in the art
and ethos of fifth-century Athens, where the achievement of the kaloi kagathoi, young men who were “beautiful to
look at and worthy of admiration,” were the perfect models for artistic rendering and public adulation. At base,
Sargeant’s models, like the sculptures of Lysippus and Praxiteles, are idealized heroes whose achievements on the
playing field earn them their renown. However, unlike his precursors, the painter requires no civic responsibility
from his ephebes, only physical stamina, gymnastic prowess, and good looks. His work bespeaks a class that existed
briefly, but was prolonged and attenuated in the languorous novels of writers such as Denton Welch...
