Tokyo Gallery, Ginza
Closes September 20
I should have known it from the title. At the opening of the current exhibition at the Tokyo Gallery in Ginza, "The Closed Garden," I asked the South Korean painter Lee Yeunmi whether the stylized motifs in her works were inspired by Korean mythology. Through a translator, she replied "no," and that the first thing to understand about her as an artist is that she was a practicing Christian.
