The drama of the exaggerated line and the presence

The drama of the exaggerated line and the presence of anomalies are both important parts of Mariano Ferrante's triptychs and diptychs and of his larger multi-layered work such as "Pintura A15/19” (shown here), Erik Bakke notes: "Anomalies are important to Ferrante’s works large and small. The closer one looks at the colorful, dense patternings of a work like Pintura A15/19 (56 x 56 inches), or any number of the other larger works, the more one sees pattern breaking down. In looking at the smaller works, like the triptychs, one sees the degree to which anomalies and asymmetries are planned—or fostered—by Ferrante.” From the exhibition catalogue #MarianoFerranteStudies.

Back in February, @mmcakorea curator Danji Lee int

Back in February, @mmcakorea curator Danji Lee interviewed Il Lee at @artprojectsny. Audio excerpts from that interview are currently part of the archival section of a retrospective of Lee Seung Jio (1941-1990), on view through October 4, 2020 at The National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea.

Born and raised in Seoul, Il Lee studied painting in the 1970s with seminal figures of South Korean contemporary art including Lee Seung Jio and artists in the vanguard of the abstract monochrome and minimalist painting movement (Dansaekhwa). In 1977, armed with a distinct cultural background and artistic training, Il Lee moved to New York where he developed his signature process and style using ballpoint pen, a medium important to his practice over the decades. Reductive in palette and nonreferential, Lee’s understated work reveals its many influences and opens up discussions of the new.
