IL Lee, Chun Kwang-Young and Lee Ufan: International Abstraction, Generational Trajectories

December 01, 2006 Art AsiaPacific Jonathan Goodman

Excerpt–

Using the dark black and indigo inks of ballpoint pens, Il Lee builds up monumental form through repeated working over a particular space, with the edges of his images diffused and loosened by random curling lines. The results, which take on a performative aspect given the single-minded endurance required for their production, are both monolithic and subtle.
