PACE ÆFTER presents 《day for night》, an exhibition with Yoo
Unseong, Park Sejin, and Han Uri, on view through November 29.
As the third edition of “Critic’s Exhibition,” SPACE ÆFTER’s
annual program, the exhibition is curated by critic Yoo Unseong.
《day for night》 begins with a critical
question about cinematic darkness and painterly darkness. Responding to this
question, Park Sejin’s paintings and Han Uri’s moving images oscillate between
the light and darkness of a single space.

The
exhibition brings together Park Sejin’s paintings of nocturnal landscapes on
canvas and Han Uri’s practice of reconfiguring cinematographic apparatuses to
explore new ways of using them. Their works intersect to evoke a moment when
the day and night of painting and cinema meet.
Yoo Unseong,
the critic who curated the exhibition, explains, “I hoped that SPACE ÆFTER,
true to its name, would become a place that creates an atmosphere for the two
artists as a ‘space after painting’ and, at the same time, a ‘space after
cinema.’”
Then, on November 28 from 6:00 PM, The Book Society will host
the 《day for night》 talk “Next Attraction”, where critics Yoo Unseong and Nayeon Gu and
artists Park Sejin and Han Uri will share their thoughts on the exhibition with
the audience.
Participating Artists: Park Sejin, Han Uri
