Galerie Maria Lund
"There's a Man in a Smiling Bag" Republic of Korea
In her paintings, constructed in layers, with fine veils of material and powerful gestures, Yoo Hye-Sook creates resonances and traces of objects and places. Her canvases are born of a particular energy, like light. Tones spanning the entire spectrum – from the beige-pink of dawn to ultrablue, from electric yellows to nocturnal greens – are superimposed to form these vibrant surfaces.
In Acte ll, vibrant life and gentle lightness take center stage on a stage of infinite space.
Yoo Hye-Sook was born in 1964 in Seoul, Republic of Korea. She lives and works in France.
Solo show of Yoo Hye-Sook

The gallery
For 26 years the GALERIE MARIA LUND has been encouraging a contemporary art that combines conceptual depth and visual pertinence; strong works that suggest meaning rather than imposing one, and in a contemporary form raise existential questions. The works of the artists represented cover a wide range of media: installation, sculpture, painting, drawing, photo, performance, video, textile and poetry. In addition to the organization of exhibitions at its premises and participation in various fairs, the gallery also promotes its artists to institutions and private organizations, handles commissions, publishes books and occasionally host other artistic fields (theatre, music, literature) for one-off events.
The gallery is a member of the French galleries association, CPGA – and of pgmap – paris gallery map.
