Artist Kibong Rhee and Hein Kuhn Oh represented by Kukje Gallery are participating in SeMA Gold 2012_ Hidden Tracks at Seoul Museum of Art, beginning June 19. As regards the theme of the SeMA Gold 2012 exhibition, which highlights the established Korean artists, Guest curator Sung Won Kim would like to suggest 'Hidden Track', a term used in the production of music albums, as the central concept of this exhibition.
A ‘hidden track’ is a bonus song or piece of music included somewhere on a music album, without being included on the playlist of the album. The ‘hidden track’, which exists in an untitled form amid hit songs, new music, and completed songs, takes various forms such as a piece of unpublished music or noise, providing listeners with an opportunity to appreciate each musician’s unique sonic world.
Kim proposed these characteristics of the ‘hidden track’ to the nineteen veteran Korean artists participating in the SeMA Gold 2012 exhibition. The exhibition Hidden Track is then the process by which our invited artists, all of whom are in their 50s and 60s, attempt to answer these and other similar questions. Amid the familiar works, well-known styles, and representative artworks of these artists, these ‘hidden tracks’ will create a special ‘moment’ for the general public, helping visitors to the exhibition to reflect on the works of these artists, who have been with us for more than 30 years.
