About the Artwork
Yeul Lee is known as an expressionistic abstract artist with an improvisatory style and rhythmical touch. Combining the traditional Korean 'penmanship' style with abstract expressionism, he has produced contemporary paintings over the years. He created a series of artworks under the name of 'Saengseonggonggan (creation of space)', a project that he worked on for a number of years. 'Saengseonggonggan' is his formative motif that puts together the great universe, nature with the miniature universe, and humans.

AUDIO GUIDE SCRIPT
Rudolf Stingel is an Italian conceptual artist who is particularly interested in the methods and procedures involved in making art. Normally, paint and brushes are used to create paintings, however, this piece was made utilizing a special method. Of what nature? The canvas's background is richly painted, laces are applied, and then, just before the laces are taken off, silver paint is sprayed over the entire painting. Repeated applications of silver paint give the lace patterns more texture and a distinct vibe than a work that has been finished with brushstrokes.
