Seong Moy
| ||||||||
Themes: abstract, colored woodblock, color relief print, silk screen Review: Seong Moy Seong Moy has created colored woodblock prints, combining oriental and occidental influences in dynamic fashion. In his prints, intense color interactions of blacks , mauves, violets, vivid yellows and their swift rhythms, placed among the large semi-abstract forms or animated designs, energetically communicate each other and produce a sense of moving drama. The critic Emily Genauer wrote of Moy's art, "It is a language, seemingly abstract, that through its melange of bright colors and fragmentary shapes as vivid as banners whipping in the wind, communicates concretely what the artist saw and felt --- His own work always stem from events and experiences, deriving from past and present, and melting into a unified image."( Exhibition Catalog Seong Moy: Color Prints ) Available research materials on this artist in the AAAC Archives are 130 slides, award records, Xerox copies of notifications for his graphic workshops, a list of the artist's prints in the collections of the Brooklyn Museum of Art and the New York Public Library and copies of exhibition notification. -- Reviewed by Young Park | |||||||||
