[MUST-SEE Show featured on art.markt] EVER-CHANGING with works by Heewon OH & Seyngean CHA @galleryonefour Seoul https://www.artmarkt.asia/en/product-category/gallery-one-four/ever-changing/ • A two person show with works by Heewon OH and Seungean CHA at ONE FOUR shares the undercurrent notion of time yet exhibit distinguished form of paintings. OH explores consciousness of time and its surrounding relationship to the paintings through light mediums while CHA examines the meaning of abstract painting today- as it was rashly defined in the past- by weaving, a method that requires a set of rules. • #contemporaryart #koreanartist #abstractpainting #galleryonefour #heewonoh #seungeancha #everchanging #time #moment #surrounding #weaving #modernism #westernstyle #wovencanvas

MUST-SEE Show featured on art.markt The Ruler of The Shape @uhjjuhdah Gallery2 with works by KIM Taeyeon https://www.artmarkt.asia/en/product-category/featured/gallery-2/the-ruler-of-the-shape/ • “Ruler” is a tool to measure length and also means a governor. In this show, the foldable ruler becomes a master of shapes as the artist KIM Taeyeon alters the relationship between the role of the tool and shape that the tool makes. In KIM's practice, a one meter foldable ruler makes sixty different shapes and four of them have been enlarged 5.5 times to be made into large sculptures in the gallery space. For the artist, not to mention the ruler vs. shape, it is hard to define which comes first, even in such a fixed relationship as cause and effect; activeness and passiveness. Taeyeon KIM is utilizing many different medias to question practical matters that she faces. They are from her daily life when she bumps into unusual circumstances and limitations. The problem and the artist both complement each other if she tries to figure it out proactively. She also draws on a latticed notebook with a ruler and pencil to list the problems and solutions. • #kimtaeyeon #master #shape #environmentalsculpture #ruler #uhjjuhdahgallery2 #contemporaryart #koreanrepublic #koreanartist #complementary #relationship #problem #solution #drawing

CANVAS LAB @gallery_artbn Seoul JUN Young Jin Featured Show @art.markt • Painting as a medium has survived for thousands of years and is one of the oldest and most quintessential mediums of all time. It once served as a recording method for religious and historical purposes until it suffered an identity crisis driven by the invention of photography. The Modernism movement led painting to re-establish itself as a major creative medium, while Post-modernism disguised it as cliché among diverse, new mediums. Jun’s primary task is to recover the high status of painting and it is the artist’s concern to work on the illusionistic paintings led by modernism and those also linked to conceptual art, in that the canvas is not shown on its own. #artbn #seoul #junyoungjin #canvaslab #modernism #contemporaryart #illusion #koreanartist #layer #overlays #painting #featuredshow #markt #artmarkt #artmarktasia #artmarktdotasia

#Repost @artnet • Korean artist Woong Joo Seo challenges his viewers’ perception of reality. His work “Crumpled Red Stripe” mimics the appearance of crushed metal, when in reality it’s a flat, oil-painted canvas. It’s among the highlights of our current online auction “Color and Form”—but hurry! Bidding closes in just a few days.
