The Museum of East Asian Art Cologne is delighted to be showing paintings by contemporary artist Helena Parada Kim. Born in Cologne and of Korean-Spanish origin, she studied at the Düsseldorf Art Academy as a master student of the British painter Peter Doig. While the pronounced naturalism of Parada Kim's paintings is clearly in the tradition of European old masters, culture-specific motifs are taken up that tie in with various pictorial traditions and everyday cultures of East Asia, especially Korea.
