DOOSAN Art Center’s DOOSAN Gallery presents 《DOOSAN Art Lab Exhibition 2026》 on view through March 7.

‘DOOSAN Art Lab’ is a program that DOOSAN Art Center has been presenting since 2010 to discover and support emerging practitioners in the fields of visual and performing arts. In the visual field, five under-35 artists have been selected on a competitive basis to have their work presented in a group exhibition format.

《DOOSAN Art Lab Exhibition 2026》 features the artists selected through last year’s open call: Rim Park, Jiu Song, Jeongmin Oh, Lee Dong-hyun, and Ridane Lee.

The five artists featured in the exhibition do not simply accept the world as a single preordained structure. Using their individual strengths and sensibilities as a starting point, they construct their own places here through different media and narratives. Those places are both the traces formed over the course of memory and time, as well as a place of fracturing that arises through misalignment with the world.

In their displaced positions, the artists sense a curious serenity, shifting their dwelling to the innermost realm of the body’s interior or shaking up normalcy within states that are defined as “false.” The worlds constructed in the process permeate into the cracks of a robust order, grudally increasing the share that is their own.

Participating Artists: Rim Park, Jiu Song, Jeongmin Oh, Lee Dong-hyun, Ridane Lee
