THE ACCLAIMED ARTIST JAMES JEAN INVITED CHRISTOPHER JAMES ALEXANDER TO WRITE AN EXHIBITION CATALOGUE ESSAY FOR ETERNAL JOURNEY, THE FIRST MAJOR RETROSPECTIVE OF HIS ARTWORK, WHICH WAS ORGANIZED BY THE LOTTE MUSEUM OF ART IN SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA.
“Tumultuous Grace: The Visions of James Jean” explores how influential forces in the visual and performing arts, the complex natural environment, and rapidly shifting geopolitical conditions have informed Jean’s enlightened global perspective. The essay highlights how the cultural landscapes of New York and Los Angeles have inspired Jean’s rigorous creative practice. Christopher’s essay was included in the publication’s South Korean edition and Jean’s second edition, which features colorful images of the exhibition’s galleries.
