"I paint from what I imagine,
what I feel and what moves me, in
terms of forms, color and rhy-
thm."
So stated Bong-yol Yang, a
native of Korea, who is currently
displaying a number of his oil
paintings, etchings and litho-
graphs in the lobby of Lane Hall.
Working mostly in a modern
trend and making bold use of
color, Yang has completed a
majority of the pictures during
the past two years, while a
student in the College of Archi-
tecture and Design here at the
University.
Priced from ten to 200 dollars
each, the paintings include several
selections shown recently in New
York City, where Yang displayed
his work. The artist has also pre-
sented exhibits in Miami.
Busy attending classes in the
mornings and working in the
afternoons, Yang spends all the
time he can find or "make" at his
easel.
Born in North Korea, he' went
to Tokyo at the age of six and
there attended grammar and high
school. His parents felt that the
educational opportunities were
better in Japan than in Kora and
so sent him there to live with a
brother.
While a child, Yang spent
time drawing and doing water

colors. Other artistic members
of the Yang family include a
brother who writes and sister
who plays the piano. However,
the student has not heard from
his family since coming to this
country.
The war, in 1943, had brought
such turmoil and danger to school-
ing in Japan that Yang decided to
return to his native Korea. When
military occupation b e g a n in
Korea, in 1945, he moved again,
this time to southern South Korea.
Thus he hoped both to escape
"the petty annoyances of the com-
munist regime" and to further his
study by association with Ameri-
cans.
With the help of an American
army officer, whose home was in
Miami, the young artist set sail
for America in 1948: Enrolling as
an undergraduate in the Univer-
sity of Miami, Yang in 1952 re-
ceived his B.A. degree.
While attending the University
of Miami, Yang spent two sum-
mers in New York City studying
with Art Student League.
Interested in all kinds of art
work, but spending the major por-
tion of his time on oil painting,
Yang plans to teach art after he
has finished his schooling.
The exhibit in Lane Hall is open
free of charge to all interested
persons.
