  • Description: For a short few weeks in early 2023, one could discover the atemporal beauty of the art of Yun Hyong-Keun at David Zwirner's Parisian space. The selection of works for this exhibition included Yun's paintings on canvas as well as works on hanji-traditional Korean mulberry paper- realized in the immediate years surrounding the artist's stay in Paris from 1980 to 1982. Shown together, these two important bodies of work shed light on Yun's positioning vis-a-vis his singular stance within Dansaekhwa, the modernist painting movement that dominated the discourse in Korean art of the 1970s and 1980s.
