We are happy to be in Seoul for the first time this year!
We present the Polish artist Leszek Skursi, in a multi-layered and impressive solo show at KiafSEOUL 2022.
Leszek Skurski was born in Gdansk and has lived and worked in Fulda for many years. His pictures tell of an infinite expanse without horizon and boundaries, mostly kept only in white. But this white is laid out in many sensitive layers, have the finest nuances and challenge the eye to explore the sensitive brushstrokes, strong putty surfaces and finest traces of work. In this multi-layered white, Skurski sketches his people with a few striking brushstrokes, seemingly helplessly exposed to emptiness, but also acting with confidence. These skillfully abstracted individuals assert themselves confidently in their boundlessly vast surroundings. And it is precisely this powerful contrast of infinite surface and small human figures that creates this strong dramaturgy of his paintings.
