拍品专文

More than a phase of growth, drawing is a spirit of complete maturation. In fact, it does not crave for anything in its earliest stage. However, the matured form is impassive, modest and tries to cease its existence. The day when we discover the light within it, we will be looking at the flash of a new era.

PARK JANG-NYUN

Born in 1937 in Korea, Park Jang- Nyun was a discrete member of the Dansaekhwa movement (Korean monochrome painting). Unlike most of his peers, he has gone back to figurative and precise lined representations in the late 1980s. However, his work Engraving Thread-like Body H-7.3 (Lot 640) featured here, painted at the beginning of his career, depicts a true experimentation of oil as a diversifying material, thus providing unlimited possibilities of depictions on a two dimensional canvas. Throughout his lifelong artistic career over six decades, Park probed to find an answer to a question of how his paintings construct his own sense of identity with the wide range of other kinds of art practiced globally at the time. Engraving Threadlike Body H-7.3 exemplifies his sincere quest during the 1960s, reflecting the balance between influence from Art Informel and unique style of his own.
