Museumhead
presents 《Flyers》, a two-person exhibition by BANG
Jeong-A and JOO Hanbyul, on view through June 20.
Flyers fly
in. Imagine lifting a bundle of paper and scattering it into the air; the
sheets drift toward unsuspecting, defenseless people like insects fluttering
their delicate wings.

The
exhibition explores the capacity of images to speak through the
(diss)appearance and re-presentation of the ‘image’ in the paintings of two
artists, BANG Jeong-A and JOO Hanbyul, working across different times and
places.
How can
images that are small yet far-reaching, metaphorical yet subversive, spark
change? In an era when everything becomes—or must become—an image, in what kind
of image do their works fly in as?
