Mark Fisher stirbt mit 66

Die Veranstaltungs-Industrie hat einen ihrer kreativsten Köpfe und Visionäre verloren: Mark Fisher starb gestern im Alter von 66 Jahren. Mit ihm verliert die Branche den Schöpfer unzähliger inspirierender, faszinierender Produktion, u.a. die Rolling Stones Steel Wheels/Urban Jungle Tour (1989-90), Pink Floyds Division Bell Tour (1994), und die U2 360 Tour (2009-2011). Fisher war außerdem zuständig für die Produktionen von Tina Turner, Roger Waters (The Wall), AC/DC, Madonna (MDNA Tour).

Sein Management veröffentlichte folgendes Statement:

"We are sad to announce that the stage designer and architect Mark Fisher, OBE, MVO, RDI, died yesterday in London aged 66. He passed away peacefully in his sleep at the Marie Curie Hospice in Hampstead with his wife Cristina at his side, after a long and difficult illness, which he suffered with stoicism and courage and his customary good humor.

Mark’s work as a set designer and artistic director has transformed the landscape of rock concerts and large scale events over the last 25 years. (...)

He was the senior designer for the Beijing Olympics Opening and Closing Ceremonies and was one of the three executive producers at the London 2012 Games ceremonies.

His work influenced not only the colleagues and crews with whom he worked but also surprised and delighted the many millions of people who experienced his designs all over the world."
