JAEHYO LEE
June 11 – July 24, 2016
1315 MASS MoCA Way, North Adams MA
CYNTHIA-REEVES is pleased to announce an exhibition of noted Korean artist, JaeHyo Lee. Working with wood and metal, JaeHyo Lee produces immaculately formed, intricate sculptures that reveal a mastery of his materials and a winking, sophisticated wit. Lee eschews traditional distinctions between the fine and applied arts and makes both functional and functionless works, presenting benches, stools, and tables alongside abstract, biomorphic forms. Burnt-black wood often serves as the sculptural ground into which Lee embeds discs of fresh wood or bent steel bolts and nails.
