White Cube is pleased to present a selection of recent ‘Ecriture’ paintings by Park Seo-Bo, the final body of work created by the artist before his passing in 2023. Executed on archival newspaper pages, these works are marked by both the date of the periodical’s release and the artist’s dynamic application of oil paint, and make a profound statement on the entwinement of temporality and creation.
Park Seo-Bo initiated his ‘Ecriture’ series in the late 1960s, embracing an introspective methodology that has its origins in Taoist and Buddhist philosophy, as well as the Korean tradition of calligraphy. This spiritual approach is inextricably linked to notions of time, space and material, concepts which underpin all of the late artist’s work.
