작품 상세

Wook-Kyung Choi (Korean, 1940-1985) "Untitled", ca. 1980s mixed media on wood panel Unframed. 31-3/4" x 44" Provenance: Estate of the artist. Notes: A graduate of the College of Fine Arts, Seoul, South Korea, Choi also studied at the Cranbrook Academy of Art, Bloomfield, Michigan, and the Brooklyn Museum of Art, New York. An instructor at several prominent art schools, she also exhibited widely during her lifetime, receiving praise from critics and collectors alike. Her vibrant, complex compositions often explore the tenets of abstract expressionism, frequently pushing the boundaries of that artistic style. The resultant works teem with a sense of energy and movement. There has been a recent revival of interest and appreciation in her work and retrospective, "Wook-Kyung Choi: American Years 1960s-1970s" was recently held to much acclaim at the Kukje Gallery, Seoul, South Korea.
