Mark Coreth was born in London in 1958 and was immediately dispatched to the family farm in the Kenyan highlands where the Equator ran through the house.
After prep school in Kenya, Mark attended Ampleforth College, and on leaving he joined The Blues and Royals, serving with the Regiment as a regular officer.
[1] His specially commissioned work includes a pair of life-sized cheetah in a bronze tree for the ruling family of Dubai, a large figure for the re-launch of Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, and the monumental Millennium sculpture The Waterhole at the Natural History Museum in London, which incorporates over 50 animals.
The Coreth one-man exhibitions at the Sladmore continue to be exciting bi-annual events[2] with the frenzied attendance and resulting sales the talk of the art world.
In between, he has regular foreign shows including Paris, New York and Sydney, and most importantly leaves himself time to fit in trips around the world for inspiration.
