“1968년은 홍익대 강의를 맡은 첫 해이다. 일찍이 교수대우를 받은 셈이다. 강사로 강의시간을 맡았다. 다른 친구들과 만나 강의를 끝내고 교정에서 포즈를 취했다.

 

뒤돌아보면, 강의를 맡아 학생들을 지도한다는 것에 중요한 각오를 하게 된 때였다. 좋은 제자를 기르고 그들이 좋은 작업을 할 수 있도록 지도할 수 있다는 기회를 가졌다는 점에서 중요한 책임을 지는 것이라 여겼다. 또한 나 자신 작가로서도 좋은 작업을 위한 연구와 노력을 아끼지 않았었다.

Hans Hofmann mused, “ Creation is dominated by three absolutely different factors: First, nature, which works upon us by its laws; second, the artist, who creates а spiritual contact with nature and his materials; third, the medium of expression  through which the artist translates his inner world. ”   Following this credo, Korean artist Ryu Youngsin's abstracted expressionist style illustrates the power and beauty of nature. Focusing on vivid color and integrated texture, her mixed media paintings evoke the visceral power of nature. Impressed and fascinated by the landscape and its elements, Ms. Youngsin's dazzling compositions pulsate with an emotional bravura and are passionate reflections revealing her personal perceptions of nature.   Forest-Divine No149, 130×130 ㎝ , Mixed media, 2022 ⓒADAGP.

[Robert C. Morgan, Art Critic] South Korea Painter Ryu Youngsin‥Black Hole Paintings

  Forest-Black hole No43, 60.6×60.6 ㎝ Mixed media, 2016. ⓒADAGP Since I wrote a review on the work of Ryu Young Sin a year ago, her paintings have continued to evolve.  By evolving I mean they have become more open and free in their exploration of experimental form. They are not in the same place they once were. From a critical point of view, I find a certain pleasure in what Ryu is doing today, specifically in a series called Forest – Black Hole.   These paintings suggest they are the work of an artist emerging from the cocoon of her past. Even if the style and subject matter of these paintings look the same, they are not. While there are always traces or resemblances that make us believe one painting is the same as another, this is rarely if ever the case (unless, of course, it is made intentional).     Forest-Black hole No26, 53×53 ㎝ , Mixed media, 2015. ⓒADAGP For example, if one carefully studies the work of the mid-twentieth century Italian painter Giorgio Morandi, his pai

[Robert C. Morgan, Art Critic] South Korea Painter Ryu Youngsin‥Visual Rhythms from a Forest of Birch

Youngsin Ryu is a highly accomplished contemporary painter who for the past five years has focused her attention on representing the formal elegance of birch trees. Like many Korean painters, her point of view is to envision forms in nature that contain the Qi or quiet energy. She discovered the natural movements ofthe trunks, branches, and leaves of these vibrant trees while observing the effect of breezes blowing through the forest glade.   Inspired by what she saw, Youngsin Ryu chose to transform this rhythmic sensation into an epic of wonderment through the art of painting.   It is precisely this sense of wonder that intrigued the artist, thus giving   the artist a necessary focus by which to concentrate and transform her perceptions of nature through her lingering experience in the birch forest.   Why birch tress?   They are strong,
