Personal Landscape in the exhibition, "Weaving Time" at Korean Cultural Service New York
[Weaving Time: An Exhibition from the Archive of Korean Artists in America, Part Three 2001-2013]
AHL Foundation and Korean Cultural Service New York
Gallery Korea, Korean Cultural Service New York
(460 Park Avenue at 57th Street, 6th floor, NY, NY 10016)
April 22 to May 28, 2015 (Opening reception April 22, 2015 6-8pm)
This exhibition is the third installment of a long-term project titled the Archive of Korean Artists in America (AKAA). www.koreanculture.org
The third installment of this exhibition presents a younger generation of artists who set up their studios in the 2000s. Most artists in the third installment are still in their 40s and are pushing the envelope from emerging to mid-career. Many of them are conceptual, installation, or interdisciplinary artists. A few artists from this generation pursue mediums such as painting, sculpture, or photography. Unlike earlier generations, they are mobile artists, simultaneously living and working in two or three different countries. Consequently, the Archive of Korean-American Artists has been renamed the Archive of Korean Artists in America.
Forty-six artists were invited to participate in the third installment, Weaving Time. Instead of a chronological arrangement of their works, the artists are grouped in five themes to highlight vital issues in tune with currents of contemporary art around the world. These artists sometimes moved from one country to another, chasing opportunities and new ideas. This is an exciting occasion to observe what they have accomplished so far and to predict where they are proceeding next. Twenty years from now, this exhibition will become an indispensable part of the Archive of Korean Artists Abroad, another acronym for AKAA.
뉴 욕한국문화원과 알재단이 공동으로 주최하는 특별전시『시간의 직조: 재미한인작가 아카이브 3차 2001-2013(Weaving Time: The Exhibition from the Archive of Korean Artists in America PartⅢ, 2001-2013)』이 오는 4월 22일부터 5월 28일까지 뉴욕한국문화원 갤러리 코리아에서 열립니다.
뉴 욕한국문화원과 알재단에서 3년 전부터 진행해온 재미한인작가 아카이브 자료 수집 및 정리 프로젝트의 성과를 공개하는 이번 전시는 지난 2013년 1차『채색된 시간: 재미한인작가 아카이브 1차 1955-1989(Coloring Time: The Exhibition from the Archive of Korean Artists in America PartⅠ, 1955-1989)』및 2014년 2차『시간의 그늘: 재미한인작가 아카이브 2차 1989-2001(Shades of Time: The Exhibition from the Archive of Korean Artists in America PartⅡ, 1989-2001)』에 이은 3차 전시이자 프로젝트를 마무리하는 마지막 전시입니다.
이번 전시에서 특히 주목되는 작가로는 메트로폴리탄 미술관에 작품이 소장된 판화 및 설치미술작가 이가경, 국립현대미술관 등에 작품이 소장된 설치작가 홍범, 도쿄 및 유럽에서 호평 받은 비디오 작가 이재이를 비롯하여, 조각 및 설치작업으로 국제 미술계에서 인정받고 있는 장홍선, 마종일, 최연우 작가 등이 있다. 또한 개성 있는 추상 회화로 자신만의 확고한 작품세계를 구축한 유혜리, 사진작가 민혜령 및 뉴욕을 중심으로 활동하는 강윤정, 박진강, 이은경, 김송이 등도 이번 전시에 포함된다. 본인의 작품 활동을 활발히 진행하면서 미국의 미술대학 교수로도 활약하고 있는 Texas Tech University 유상미, Skidmore College 이상욱, Kutztown University 이인미 등도 주목할 만한 작가군에 속한다. 또한 헤인 고, 리아주, 케이트 허스 리, 전경 등과 같이 1.5세 혹은 2세 재미한인 작가들의 활약이 두드러지는 점도 3차 아카이브 주요 연구대상이라고 할 수 있다.
