Kim Tschang-Yeul
by Ch'ang-nyŏl Kim and Barbara Pollack
Kim Tschang-Yeul is one of the greatest living Korean painters. Born in 1929 in the North of the then unified Korea, he migrated to the South to escape the communist regime. He subsequently left for New York to pursue his artistic dreams before finally settling in Paris in 1969. There, he began to nurture, over a period of forty years, a unique motif: the drop of water. The waterdrop is the starting point for a singular and iconic body of work, which stands at the confluence of lyrical abstraction, Pop Art and Chinese calligraphy. This simple and limpid œuvre subtly fuses Taoist wisdom, modern conceptual irony and the tragedy of war.00Exhibition: Almine Rech Gallery, New York, USA (06.03.-14.04.2018).
