Excerpt—
“Ballpoint Pen Drawing Since 1950,” features work by nearly a dozen artists created with the humble ballpoint pen… Here you have ballpoint masters like IL LEE, whose abstract “BL-120” (2011) uses the pen’s minute hatching capabilities, as well as the shininess of its ink, to full effect…

My new inspiration:
Korean artist Il Lee!
Gallery Hyundai in Seoul, Korea, will present IL LEE and The Line of Duration, a major solo exhibition of works by Il Lee from June 19 - July 15, 2012. The exhibition marks the artist’s first solo exhibition in Korea in 16 years. This homecoming exhibition is the largest showing of Lee’s work in Korea and will feature his signature works — large-scale ballpoint works on canvas and on paper — along with his new oil on canvas works, and will be presented at Gallery Hyundai located at 80 Sagan-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul.
The exhibition is accompanied by a fully-illustrated catalogue with an essay by Raphael Rubinstein.
