Mark Miremont

Mark Miremont is an American artist working in experimental film and photography.

Early Life & Education
Mark Miremont was born in Madrid, Spain and studied philosophy at UCLA and Harvard. He began his artistic endeavors with hundreds of esoteric aphorisms, graffitied in Downtown Los Angeles and the Mission District of San Francisco, culminating in a 60 foot piece on the side of the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles.

Film
After street art landed him in legal trouble, he moved on to film and directed several music videos, the first of which was for "Flower", by Soundgarden. Much of his work was shown on MTV's alternative music program 120 Minutes. His experimental films have screened with works by Andy Warhol and Stan Brakhage. These, and his work in music video, caught the attention of Robert Redford’s Sundance Institute while Miremont was a first year grad student at UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television. He was invited to develop his first script, The White Ocean, at the Director’s Lab during that same year. Quentin Tarantino and Tom Noonan were two of the other seven first time directors.

Photography
In 2010, he released "The Resurrection of Beauty - a manifesto for 21st century art" to coincide with the exhibit of new photographs and the premiere of a film of the same name in Amsterdam.
