Geun Taek Yoo - Geuntaek Yoo Solo Exhibition 

Dong San Bang Gallery 2007.03

To begin with, one can say that the characteristics of Yoo Geuntaek's painting emerge from the materials, the texture and vitality in his work. Most of his work is done by painting on paper with chalk powder and Indian ink, and his technical practice has become more sophisticated in his recent work. The boldly sliding repetitive strokes, the sense of materials in softly colored surfaces with chalk powder, the expanding patterns like waves, the sharp but loose shapes as a glimmering apparition, especially the brush stroke making rhythmical moves as blurry snap photo shots; all of these construct an exquisite sense in Yoo's painting.

Byoungho Kim - Assembled Fantasy 

Weibang Gallery 2008.06

Media artist Byoung-ho Kim designs a fantasy. He regards it not only as a desire of a human being but something under the control of one. He is convinced there is a fantasy in every creature by all means, so constantly coordinates, adapts, and arranges it as a desire. Therefore, the more intense a desire grows, the more sophisticated a fantasy becomes, and eventually arouses such a nuance of a commodity as a ‘ready-made.’ A work of Byoung-ho Kim is not the representation of a desire but the result of it.

Kangwon Lee - A Scene 

N O A M G A L L E R Y 2005.02

Lee Kangwon’s works on display at the show are largely divided into two kinds: One, made of rubber sponge, is widely scattered all over the first exhibition hall and the other is fabricated from craypas in indigo, crimson, and sky blue. What is above all most eye-catching is his use of unconventional materials which are considered rather uncommon in sculpture.

Kangwon Lee - A Trace 

SOMA Museum 2008.07

I first came across Lee Kangwon's work through the many small objects serenely placed on the floor and their shadows or silhouettes. What we feel from these objects made of rubber sponge and their shadows shaped by sponge dust can be said to be a type of 'modesty'. In the artist's work, we may feel his attitude to be humble, yet determined not to commit any insolence. Of course, Lee takes the generous view that his work remains open to the viewer's judgment and evaluation, rather than pushing any aggressive discourse.

Bomin Kim - The Settlement 

doART Gallery 2006.12

First, let us visit the studio in <Open Studio (2004)>. There is a desk. A pile of two books and an open one are on the desk. And a chair is laid askew. These things are described with lines as Kim BoMin has usually done in her earlier works. Of course, she did not draw the lines. She attached the line tape. All these things are covered with a kind of fog of Korean ink which is emitted from the cotton cloth.

Sunny kim - Rolling Fog 

GALLERY HYUNDAI (New Space) 2010.04

My first encounter with Sunny Kim's “Girls in Uniform” series was from her 2001 Gallery Sagan exhibition. At the time, her work, which mostly originated from documentary sources suggestive of standardized types, was transformed to deliver an artificial formality akin to graphic images. There was a certain intentional barrier that evoked a sense of absence and a feeling of cold detachment, and the fact that one could not find any youthful energy nor movement in the uniformed smiling girls made the paintings different.

Kwangho Lee - Inter-View in Changdong 

Changdong Art Studio 2006.04

To Lee, Kwang-Ho, the canvas is a window through which he has an on-going dialogue with the objects painted. In addition, his way of relating to others is presented using different media. This characteristic is most distinct in his recent series of portraits that are combined with some objects and video installations.

Bomin Kim - Diary of Drifting 

Cais Gallery 2010.03

Map is a portrait of the earth and also a face of human beings. Composed of signs and abbreviations, it shows a miniature of the world and gives a sense of the way we interpret the world at the same time. Map, Like painting, is a falsity based on reality and an attempt to revive what is fundamentally impossible to revive. That's how the map of actual size emerges, as in the Borges's novel which becomes a conventional analogy.

Jinnie Seo - RED CHAMBER 

Brain Factory 2004.02

Seo's work is characterized by strong linear draughtsmanship, subtle but rich colors and a highly personalized conceptual framework that examines the cultural landscape of U.S. and Korea and the predicament of the individual within those cultures.
