Simon Morley Camus, La Peste / The Plague 1, 2021 Ink on Paper Signed on verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) I am British, but live in South Korea where I teach at a university. I also spend time in my house in central France. I lived in London for many years, and before that, in New York City. I divide my time between teaching, painting and writing. My painting practice usually involves 'painted words' which I find rather than invent. I am interested in the shape of there words as well as their meaning. I often use book covers and title pages. You can see my work in the recently published book 'The Word is Art' (Thames & Hudson, 2018) Education BA Modern History, Oxford University MA Fine Art, Goldsmith's College, University of London PhD University of Southampton Exhibitions Selected solo shows 2011-2021: 2020-21: 'Ex Libris', Bibliothek Sankt Georgen, Frankfurt, Kunst-Station Sankt Peter, Cologne. 2019: '1968', Eagle Gallery (with Jonathan Callan and Carolyn Thompson) 2018: 'Parallel', Hanmi Gallery, Seoul 'Our Utopia', Youlhwadang Book Museum, Paju Book City, South Korea 2017: 'Invisible', Courtauld Gallery Library, London 2015: 'Kiss Me Deadly, Gallery Baton, Seoul 2014 : 'Albert Camus: Oeuvres', Galerie Scrawitch, Paris 2011: 'Messagerie', Musée des Beaux-Arts, Dijon, France Gallery Representation Art First, London. JJ gallery, Seoul, Korea. About the postcard artworks These 4 ink paintings are based on the 1947 Gallimard First edition of Albert Camus' classic 'La Paste' ('The Plague'). This book seemed an appropriate one to paint during the pandemic. Camus is a favorite writer of mine, and in 2015 I did a whole show about him in Paris.
