Mario
Born in Seoul, South Korea on September 14, 1949, Myung “Mario”
Jung began his promising career as an artist in the mid 80’s.
His life changed dramatically when he was paralyzed, blinded and
deafened as side effects from a catastrophic, third-story, balcony
fall. Not even interested in food, Mario was giving up until he had
a spiritual dream that renewed his strength and his will to live.
Leaving doctors, family, and friends amazed and perplexed, Mario
recovered completely and has since meticulously developed his
flexible artistic style. Working in a multitude of genres, Mario’s
emerging popularity is heightened by his ability to create a diverse
range of work from classic and realistic stills, popular among Nu Realists Collectors,
to passionate impastos with richly textured details.
Mario has been a member of the Seoul Artist Association for more than 30 years and
has received grand prize honors in the category of Western Art from the association’s
Exhibition of Fine Artists. His collectors reach around the world and his personal
dreams are being fulfilled one painting at a time.
