Around Us: New Paintings by Jeong Im Yi
May 11 to June 9, 2013 at ArtZone 461 Gallery
Around Us: New Paintings by Jeong Im Yi
ArtZone 461 Gallery is pleased to announce two new concurrent solo shows for Jeong Im Yi and Eileen Starr Moderbacher. These are only the second solo shows with each of these artists at ArtZone 461 Gallery, now approaching its fifth anniversary.
Jeong Im Yi’s new paintings parallel her recent and new travel and life experiences. They are more colorful and include the introduction of landscape painting. The consistent element in her body of work remains her faithfulness to demonstrating technical skills and capturing, not merely documenting, moments at – or of – the intersection of time and memory.
The artist comments on her increased concern with the picture plane: “The brush marks on my paintings record points of mindfulness, and points of contact; they record my presence.” She projects viewers will experience firsthand these points of mindfulness that, in turn, refresh the works for a new audience.
Jeong Im Yi earned two Masters Degrees in Painting, one in 1995 from Hong Ik University in Seoul, South Korea and the second in 2004 from the San Francisco Art Institute. She has exhibited internationally in Seoul, Tokyo, Tel Aviv, Vienna, Paris, Chicago and San Francisco.
Opening Reception Saturday May 11, 5:00 – 8:00 pm
Gallery Hours: 12-6 pm Wednesday-Sunday, occasional evenings and anytime by appointment

Panta rhei: everything flows – New Paintings by Eileen Starr Moderbacher
ArtZone 461 Gallery is pleased to announce two new concurrent solo shows for Jeong Im Yi and Eileen Starr Moderbacher. These are only the second solo shows with each of these artists at ArtZone 461 Gallery, now approaching its fifth anniversary.
Eileen Starr Moderbacher’s new series uses the Pony Express as a metaphor to comment on how we’ve arrived at our civilization’s current condition. The Pony Express was a 19th century horseback mail delivery and relay system. It lasted only 18 months but is considered to have furthered European, Puritan and Manifest Destiny philosophies. It set in motion an emphasis on ‘faster, bigger, better, never stop’, concepts that remain constants in our postmodern cultural landscape.
Moderbacher explains, “My work has shifted to a concern about the environment, global climate change, extinction of species – palm trees growing on icebergs; these become natural and logical to my way of thinking.” Subject matter is not the only new element in these works: The artist is “Consciously choosing to combine patterns I create and take the work one step closer to abstraction. There is a flattening of the picture plane and a letting-go of the horizon line; I am free to move in a direction that allows me to experience what the paint can do – letting it guide me out of preconceived notions and approaches.”
The artist received a Bachelor in Fine Arts, Printmaking, from the Art Institute of Chicago and her Masters in Painting from the California College of the Arts in San Francisco in 2004.

The Pony Express was a 19th century horseback mail delivery and relay system. It lasted only 18 months but is considered to have furthered European, Puritan and Manifest Destiny philosophies. It set in motion an emphasis on ‘faster, bigger, better, never stop’, concepts that remain constants in our postmodern cultural landscape.
Moderbacher explains, “My work has shifted to a concern about the environment, global climate change, extinction of species – palm trees growing on icebergs; these become natural and logical to my way of thinking.” Subject matter is not the only new element in these works: The artist is “Consciously choosing to combine patterns I create and take the work one step closer to abstraction. There is a flattening of the picture plane and a letting-go of the horizon line; I am free to move in a direction that allows me to experience what the paint can do – letting it guide me out of preconceived notions and approaches.”
The artist received a Bachelor in Fine Arts, Printmaking, from the Art Institute of Chicago and her Masters in Painting from the California College of the Arts in San Francisco in 2004.

Around Us: New Paintings by Jeong Im Yi
ArtZone 461 Gallery is pleased to announce two new concurrent solo shows for Jeong Im Yi and Eileen Starr Moderbacher. These are only the second solo shows with each of these artists at ArtZone 461 Gallery, now approaching its fifth anniversary.
Jeong Im Yi’s new paintings parallel her recent and new travel and life experiences. They are more colorful and include the introduction of landscape painting. The consistent element in her body of work remains her faithfulness to demonstrating technical skills and capturing, not merely documenting, moments at – or of – the intersection of time and memory.
The artist comments on her increased concern with the picture plane: “The brush marks on my paintings record points of mindfulness, and points of contact; they record my presence.” She projects viewers will experience firsthand these points of mindfulness that, in turn, refresh the works for a new audience.
Jeong Im Yi earned two Masters Degrees in Painting, one in 1995 from Hong Ik University in Seoul, South Korea and the second in 2004 from the San Francisco Art Institute. She has exhibited internationally in Seoul, Tokyo, Tel Aviv, Vienna, Paris, Chicago and San Francisco.
Opening Reception Saturday May 11, 5:00 – 8:00 pm
Gallery Hours: 12-6 pm Wednesday-Sunday, occasional evenings and anytime by appointment
