Chae Tongyull

With a color palette as rich as his life story, the works of Chae Tongyull are steeped in literary symbolism and rooted in a deep appreciation for romantic adventure. Born in Busan amidst the Korean war of the 1950s, Chae has travelled the world, eventually seeking his fame and fortune within the U.S. In his twenties, he was the founder of the โ€œIdistsโ€ movement, an expressionist group based out of New Orleans. Later, he would move to New York city to become one of the only Asian (and only Korean artists) within the East Village art scene of the 1980s, where he was a contemporary of legends such as Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat. Since 1993, he has travelled and painted extensively within the Himalayas, exploring remote regions in China, Tibet, Nepal, and India. His works gain inspiration from a diverse range of classic artistic and literary traditions: the prose of Shakespeare, mysterious legends from Korean folklore, the eccentric brushstrokes of Chinese Calligraphy master Pa-Ta-Shan-Jen, Buddhist philosophy, and much more. Because of their rich texture and unique subject matter, his art has been praised and collected for its value in straddling both American and South Korean cultural identities, as well as various places in between.

He has participated in various international exhibitions including within the Bronfman Center in Montreal, Saatchi & Saatchi in NYC, And the Beat Goes On in Shanghai and Chengdu, and are part of permanent collections within the Korean National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Samsung Lium Art Museum, Daelim Art Museum, and Daejeon Expo.

Chae Tongyull`s "Room" series

[New York City seen from the Korean bedroom] "This work of art features a classic Korean bedroom with a traditional wardrobe, mottled blankets, and pillows that I saw in my childhood. I completed this body of work over the course of 10 years while living in New York and traveling throughout the western United States. One day, I decided to draw a New York night view outside of the window instead of the Korean countryside, and added a folding screen. This work in particular is one of several in my "Korean bedroom series" and the first to be animated. It offers a perspective of a life lived between two worlds, and two homes. "

[Korean drinking scene in New York] "This is a work that harmonizes the city scenery felt while walking the streets of New York every night and the Korean drinking bottles and glasses in my own studio. It is an animated work with the motif of an oil transfer drawing made in 2022."

40 years an artist from NY to Himalayas

Chae Tongyull has a career that spans over 4 decades and many more continents. As an immigrant to the US in the 1980s, he offered a uniquely Asian voice to the East Village art scene taking place in New York City. As the product of two cultures, his work is rife with colors, stories, and the experiences of a life well-travelled. Following his breakout moment in New York City, his work has taken him to Canada, Mexico, Europe, and many cities large and small along the Himalayas, where he has been traveling and painting since 2010.
