New
Works by the Korean Ceramicist Suku (Suck Woo) Park
For the second
time the Gallery presents works by the Korean artist Suku Park, who
lives and works in Finland. He enjoys a high reputation, both in Europe
and Asia, for objects as aesthetically refined and impressive as technically
sophisticated. His works are in many important museums and private
collections around the world. They reflect the artist's subtle imagination
and ability to combine, in his forms and glazes, impressions from
the world in which he lives with memories of the great Korean tradition
from which he comes to creations of exciting appeal. The pieces to
be shown in this exhibition will range from delicate, translucent
porcelain bowls of a more ceremonial character to monumental, sculpturally
conceived, double-walled vessels. Suku Park's hallmark, and objects
which delight in witty, playful invention.
