J. C. Kim
Rainbow Prism

20 x 25 cm
1946
Provenance: Family of A. E. Halliwell

Little is known about J. C. Kim beyond the fact that he studied under A E Halliwell, though the fact that Halliwell collected this painting suggests that he thought highly of his student. Calling to mind Pink Floyd’s later iconic album cover, this painting features a prism refracting white starlight into a multicolour rainbow of light. The contrast between the monochrome black, grey and white palette and the shock of rainbow colour is striking, leaving a striking impression on the viewer.

Condition: Generally very good
