About the Item
d0518-4 is a work by contemporary artist Ahn Hyun-Ju, taken from the Dripping series. In this series of abstract paintings, the artist is exploring the pictorial possibilities of her preferred support: three dimensional aluminum structures.
The first paintings of the series were marked by the contrast between the natural dripping of the paint and the perfectly mastered monochromatic flat color shapes. An evolution emerges in the most recent paintings: drippings and flats are superimposed and mixed up ; transparent effects and the traces left by the tools used to apply the paint make visible the paintings’ different stages of development as well as the artist's movement (an ample movement, sometimes straight, sometimes curling).
This work is signed. It is not framed.
Ann Hyun-Ju's work bears the mark of her training in both painting and sculpture. The artist paints onto three dimensional aluminum supports and occasionally goes beyond the traditional limits of the stretcher (square or rectangular) to explore new shapes. Experimentation is at the very heart of her approach and is a part of every aspect of her craft: supports, shapes, materials (she mixes pigments together with acrylic paints), color association… her abstract paintings, of which one can guess an influence of 1960s and 1970s American minimalism, refutes any metaphorical language and all narrative intentions. They are a part of a pure aesthetic quest.

Ahn Hyun-Ju
Born in Seoul, Ahn Hyun-Ju has lived and worked in Germany for over twenty years. Her work bears the mark of her training in both painting and sculpture. Her abstract paintings, influenced by 1960s and 1970s American minimalism, refute any metaphorical language and all narrative intentions. Their composition is characterised by the contrast between simple and minimalist geometric shapes with deep, intense colours. Ahn Hyun-Ju has been featured five times in the collective exhibition “Die Grosse” at the Kunstpalast Museum in Düsseldorf and in the collective exhibition “Colore non solo”, presented at the 51st Venice Biennale in 2005 and at the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna in 2006. “How difficult is it to see a thing as a thing itself and recognize the beauty of the being itself? A thing without being a medium of meanings and metaphors which are based in our convention?”
