Gwon Osang’s solo exhibition presents the artist’s practice, which has opened up new possibilities for contemporary Korean sculpture through the combination of volume—a classical attribute of sculpture—and photography, a contemporary medium. The exhibition focuses on the conceptual evolution of ‘Deodorant Type,’ the series that lies at the core of Gwon’s distinctive practice of photo-sculpture, while tracing the trajectory of his work as it has developed through an ongoing dialogue with major figures in the history of modern sculpture.

The Seoul National University Museum of Art presents a special exhibition 《Everyday Images, How They Address Us》 on view through November 22. In the mid-twentieth century, pop art actively brought images from advertising, consumer goods, comics, and mass media into the realm of art. As mass media and consumer culture continued to grow and new forms of media emerged, Korean artists likewise began to appropriate and transform images and objects from everyday life, combining them with other images to reflect the society and culture of their time.

《Double Spread》 is an exhibition that examines the point at which the distinctly sculptural sensibilities developed by Gwon Osang (b. 1974) and Ham Seongju (b. 1990) unfold across the picture plane. The first thing the two artists have in common is that both majored in sculpture.
