Kim
Jae-Im belonged to the first generation of Korean Abstract
Expressionists. Since her first one-woman show in Seoul,
Korea in 1960, she has continuously exhibited her works
in Europe and Asia. Although her works resemble those
of American Abstract Expressionist painters superficially,
there is a fundamental difference. For example, she uses
Oriental brushes of all size as if her acrylic paints
were links and watercolors.

Varghese is a Malaysian artist who began painting religious/biblical
themes after she was inspired by artworks of Asian Christians
in the early issues of IMAGE magazine. The spritual images
made by other Asian Christian artists prompted her to
explore the possibilities of making tangible her own understanding
of her Christian sprituality and faith - for the first
time.
