25 Years, Artists' Editions for Parkett

Hangaram Art Museum - Seoul Arts Center, Seoul

200 Artworks. Rare edition works of contemporary art giants in Singapore for the first time. Damien Hirst, Jeff Koons, Anish Kapoor, Ai Weiwei, Andy Warhol, Louise Bourgeois, Maurizio Cattelan and many others. Highlights from the collection include, Hirst's ping-pong ball hovering on the hot air of a hair dryer, Koon's iconic inflatable sculpture, Ai's handy gilded fly swatter, Kapoor's spatial funnel contraption, Warhol's absurd photo print of skeletons and Cattelan's 'tongue-in-cheek' portrait. The editions represent the artists' provocative responses to Parkett's challenging publication venture, embodied in a broad range of inventive formats such as prints, page-art projects, photographs, drawings, videos, sculptures and sound pieces. The exhibition space transforms into five specially curated rooms, evocative of contemporary living spaces: a Studio, a Playroom, a Wardrobe, a City and a Garden. In addition, the Reading room encourages viewers to browse Parkett's recent volumes and its page art projects. Also on view are artists' sketches, letters and other material documenting the direct collaboration between Parkett and the artists. The Tony Oursler room is a site specific installation of edition work Talking Light whereby the light bulbs brightness reacts with sound emission from the artist's voice.
