  • Collage of Memories - Korean Contemporary Art

    Nov 20, 2010 - Jan 02, 2011

    In this context,“Collage of Memor ies, ”the exhibition of contemporary Korean art, redefines the concept of‘collage ’ through 10 artists who have unique understanding of media, history, private memories, culture, and globalism&identity. Their interpretation of the methodology unmasks the very natures of the changed society. This means we need to see more than a physical technique or a marriage of heterogeneous materials from the exhibition. What becomes more important is a philosophical attitude that can spread over any expressive medium. Those 10 artists commonly arrive at an aesthetic position that makes not only a methodological bridge between art, novel, poetry, architecture, and motion picture, but also a chronological link between the present and the past and even to the future. We need to see collage as not a form but an attitude to open, link, and mix the seemingly incomparable multitude.
