History Has Failed Us, but No Matter[편집]

Korean Pavilion, 58th La Biennale di Venezia

This exhibition explores the history of modernization in East Asia through the lens of gender and the agency of tradition. Generating a complex narrative assemblage of historical interventions, the three artists in this exhibition seek to resist and create ruptures in the logic of systems and power, and they are keen to question how the development of civilization, the violence of convention, and the norms of such history take place in our times.

May 11–November 24, 2019

Artist: siren eun young jung, Hwayeon Nam, and Jane Jin Kaisen

Curated by Hyunjin Kim, and commissioned by Art Council Korea

Gridded Current[편집]

The exhibition Gridded Currents explores how nature, in particular the sea, has been ruled and dominated by modernization in reifying and enforcing modernity’s border-making. The sea is no longer a neutral landscape, as seen in this exhibition. Instead, it approaches the ocean as a site of colonial history, a charged marker of national borders, and a target of capitalistic exploitation of its natural resources. The works of Nina Canell, Ayoung Kim, Runo Lagomarsino, and Charles Lim Yi Yong explore various aspects of modernity and other meta-narratives that maintain a distance from everyday reality but remain deeply embedded in the ocean’s depths.

Kukje Gallery, Seoul

July 20 - Aug 20, 2017

Artist: Nina Canell, Ayoung Kim, Runo Lagomarsino, Charles Lim

2 or 3 Tigers[편집]

2 or 3 Tigers is a group exhibition about colonialism, media, and modernity, specifically in East Asia. The figure of the tiger itself is the medium through which mythological, colonial, and modern histories are evoked and folded into the present, highlighting unstable identities and shifting ground, as well as structural continuities and modernization ideologies.

Scott’s ”The Art of Not Being Governed," lectures, performances, and films explore the strategies of resistance against imperial and national structures in Asia while expounding on the genesis of state structures, national borders, and capitalist economies and their relationship with indigenous cultures and identity constructs.

artist: Yiso Bahc, Chung Seoyoung, and Kim Beom

Two Hours - Bahc Yiso, Chung Seoyoung, Kim Beom - Exhibitions - Tina Kim Gallery

Two Hours focuses on works by three artists--Yiso Bahc, Seoyoung Chung, and Beom Kim--created and exhibited over roughly a decade from the late 1990s through the 2000s. Concentrating on pieces from these years, during which the three artists shared a similar sensitivity and congenial colleagueship, this exhibition introduces artworks that provide an inevitable basis for understanding the emergence of the notion of contemporary art in South Korea.

Annual Report, 7th Gwangju Biennale[편집]

The 7th Gwangju Biennale comprised a series of selected traveling exhibitions invited to use the biennale as a destination, a stop on the touring itinerary in the global exhibition network. By inviting exhibitions to the Biennale, exhibitions are understood here as a fundamental expression of cultural and intellectual practice. As such, they have gone beyond being understood as a form of reflection or forum of debate for art.

The program was divided into three main strands: "On the Road," a collection of traveling exhibitions that were produced elsewhere in 2006/2007; "Position Papers," involved curators in dialogue; and "Insertions," featured works and events specially commissioned for Gwangju.
