Gantner
Paul Guy Gantner (Ki Chul. Choi) was born in 1948 in Seoul, South Korea. He was instantaneously attracted to color and form. By the age of twelve, he was attempting to recreate his universe through the medium of paint. Gantner is primarily a self-taught artist. His passion for the Impressionists and the Post-Impressionists was responsible for his move to France. This allowed him to study their work freely and to explore their universe. The majority of Gantner's paintings are set in Provence and the Midi. The artist's fascination with quaint mountain villages and their narrow, winding streets becomes a perfect vehicle for the true subject of his work's solitude.
The majority of Gantner's paintings are set in Provence and the South of France, where he is particularly drawn to the beauty of the region's villages and countryside. His work is popular with collectors around the world.
