Gorgeous Etching, with aquatint and color matrix by the South Korean artist Deok Sung Kang, made around 1990. The works of this artist, although they tend towards abstraction, are really inspired by nature. They illustrate a very personal vision of everyday objects and phenomena. The creative brilliance of this artist is widely recognized. In this case, the work is divided into two areas, the first of which is dominated by a red color, which represents a pair of red roses using a rather realistic technique. However, in contrast, a larger area of ​​intense blue inspired by natural motifs and splashed with a red spot. About the artist Deok Sung Kang is a painter and printmaker of South Korean origin. He studied Fine Arts in his native country, although he later attended the École de Beaux Arts in Paris and, later, in 1989, he settled in Madrid, where he continued his studies at the Complutense University of Madrid. The highlight of his facet as a painter are his prints, often using rice paper as a support. Most of his works have been exhibited at fairs and exhibitions in Spain, but he has also done some in his country, such as at the Art Museum in Seoul. About the technique The origin of prints in Asian art has its foundations in the knowledge of printing texts on woodblocks, around the 8th century. Over time, it evolved and this new art became accessible to the majority of the public, opening the doors to the enjoyment of art and collecting, which until then was limited only to merchants, rich warriors... Gprgeous Etching is a type of engraving, which is made using a metal plate (iron, zinc or copper) as a base, which is covered with a light layer of a protective varnish or acid-resistant wax. The engraver draws with a stylus on the layer of varnish, reaching just up to the metal plate. Later, the plate is dipped in etching, hence its name, a solution based on water and nitric acid, which corrodes the copper in the areas where it was not protected by the varnish. The immersion time is what determines the depth of the line. Metal plates engraved with this technique can be printed with the desired ink colour, prepared by combining various pigments and binders. Beautiful work of art by the contemporary Korean artist Duck Sung Kang...
