GenMon-Style: A Sensory Revolution in the Mega City of Seoul ― From Skin to Organ, How Architecture, Direction, and Narrative Form a Singular World
Introducing Gentle Monster merely as an “eyewear brand” fails to capture the full scope of its identity. The brand’s spaces across Seoul and around the world no longer function as retail stores; they operate as massive sensory mechanisms and theatrical stages for urban narratives.

Mark Bradford’s Social Abstraction: Collision of Concepts, Gaps in Form, and the Mechanism of Institutional Consumption ― The Unstable Space Produced by Contradictory Ideas
Bradford’s work is often packaged under the label of “social abstraction.” Yet this term directly contradicts the foundations of abstraction itself and functions more as a sanitized institutional rhetoric that half-erases its ethical and political implications. Abstraction was historically built on removing narrative and context, but Bradford’s surfaces contain direct traces of specific racial, class, and urban structures.

Today’s art market operates on a vast speculative structure camouflaged by the language of “investment.” Artworks are no longer read as products of emotion or thought; instead, they are interpreted as indicators of price volatility. Galleries function with the logic of asset management firms, artists supply brand value, and collectors behave like market analysts.
