Physical distance is now easier to overcome than ever before. The boy born in 1993 has become a digital native in no time.

Exhibitions 《Mono Mansion》, 2023.07.21 – 2023.08.13, OUTHOUSE We all live in our own houses. Each “house” takes a different form, and our ideas and meanings of home are just as varied.

Articles Artist Eusung Lee: A Sculptural Exploration of the Sense of Bodily Presence Eusung Lee (b. 1989) has presented three-dimensional works that evoke a sense of bodily presence and spark narrative possibilities.

Articles [Critique] Ahn Kyuchul - Meta-Art that Traces the “Outside” When I imitate objects and make them under the name of ‘artworks,’ there is always someone standing at the end of those paths. The paths branch outward from me. A chair, a room, a house, a forest come into being.

Articles [Review] Critical Thought in Art: The Case of Yoon Dongchun A long black-and-pink rectangle; a short blue-and-yellow rectangle; a three-tiered rectangle composed of white, blue, and red; a piece of military-patterned fabric bearing the letters “BTS”; a seascape with an iceberg floating upon it. Before us stretches an artwork measuring 775.6 cm in width, consisting of these five panels aligned horizontally, tightly joined without a single gap. Now then — how would you view this work?
