FAIR HIGHLIGHT

Yang Jung Uk
Gallery SoSo | Seoul, Korea

Yang Jung Uk – A Man Without Words – Gallery SoSo (Seoul, Korea)– 34-year old multi-media artist – environment/installation of light, sound and motion from simple found objects.

“A Man Without Words” encompassed Jung Uk’s reflections upon the everyday, simple things that would occur in both his life and the lives of the individuals around him who seemed to lead monotonous, repetitive lives.

Yang’s work draws out the void within ordinary people who are living within the standardization of contemporary society and imbues it with humanity. He draws out life’s principles as well as play, using a medium such as kinetic art that is both dynamic and systematic to tell stories that are both silent and lyrical.

Gallery SoSo of Seoul, Korea will be exhibiting in Booth 411.

Miami Artist Troy Simmons' Work Elegantly Blends Nature and Modern Brutalist Architecture

Miami-based visual artist Troy Simmons is inspired by nature’s persistence to co-exist despite the impact we impose – combined with his fascination for the Brutalist Architectural movement of the 1950’s, the result is a contemporary re-incarnation of the Arte Povera genre. Simmons uses concrete, color fields & organic forms to express his position on the harmonious existence of different entities.

“Opposites attract. Although rather cliche, it’s a theme that echos true to my intense fascination with nature and modern Brutalist Architecture. Concrete, acrylics and raw natural elements allow me to physically explore the ideological perceptions of incompatible binary relationships,” explains Simmons.

“My inspiration is drawn from the evolution of our social structure and nature’s persistence to coexist despite the elements that work against it. Relationships and families formed regardless of political, ethnic or religious backgrounds are parallel experiences found in the natural world around us. The contrast is easily seen in sprouts of grass, growing through a small crack in the sidewalk. These ideas fuel my passion to create unique art that exposes the stable coexistence of opposites.”

Troy Simmons is a strong believer in discovery through creation and describes his work as an exploration of the relationship between nature and man. Simmons challenges himself by creating unique pieces that expose the beauty that is created when these elements collide. The artist is represented by Jankossen Contemporary (New York/Basel, Switzerland) and is a resident artist at Bakehouse Art Complex – Studio #27, in the Wynwood Arts District at 561 NW 32nd Street, Miami Florida 33127.

Dreyfoos School of the Arts. “We’re very excited that Art Palm Beach, the largest art show in Palm Beach County wanted to connect with our students. It’s so important that our students exhibit their work and have the opportunity to deal with clients early on in their careers. 

Palm Beach State College is thrilled that Laura Rincon, one of our talented students, will have her artwork serve as the poster for Art Palm Beach,” says Victoria R. Martin, Professor 1, Department Chair Fine Arts and Graphic Design, Palm Beach State College, Lake Worth Campus.
