Ilmin Museum of Art, Seoul
The Speed of the Large, the Small, and the Wide. Sculptures, video installation, drawing, photo collage, and sound-based performance
The museum presents a solo exhibition of contemporary artist Chung Seoyoung, "The Speed of the Large, the Small, and the Wide". Chung was at the forefront of the artists whose work truly began to show the symptoms of change in South Korean contemporary art in the early 1990s, and she has been consistently working in varied genres including sculpture, installation, drawing, and performance to create a body of work that reveals the underlying thought and reflection behind form. For this exhibition, the artist has attempted to overcome the limitations of sculpture through a body of work that raises the fundamental, epistemological question of what it means to create work as a sculptor. This is, one could say, the politics that Chung reveals through what is often considered a traditional genre. The 16 works featured in this exhibition include video installation, drawing, photo collage, and sound-based performance. Opening: september 12, 5pm.
