Marcello Mercado (b. 1963, Presidencia Roque Sáenz Peña, Chaco, Argentina) is an Argentine-German interdisciplinary artist and filmmaker working between Argentina and Germany. His practice spans experimental film, video, installation, drawing, bio-art and algorithmic systems, exploring archives, artificial intelligence, memory, obsolescence and the transformation of images through technological and biological processes. He studied Film, Television and Psychology at the National University of Córdoba and later at the Academy of Media Arts Cologne (Kunsthochschule für Medien Köln). Since the early 1990s, Mercado has developed a body of work that combines cinema, performance, bio-art and media archaeology.

Recent projects such as Das Kapital, ERODE and The Hypergaussian Wars continue his investigation into image systems, algorithmic warfare, archives and the unstable relationship between matter, memory and technology.
