행사 소개

As the second exhibition of the Sejong Collector Story series, it sheds light on the role of collector in the art circle and provides ordinary citizens with an opportunity to appreciate personal collections. Among the paintings collected by In-Yeong Moon Woong for about 50 years, 120 works by Kim Hwan-ki, Lee Eung-no, Lee Seong-ja, Harry Meyer and Lee Don-heung will be unveiled. It provides an opportunity to examine the relationship between art and life, paying particular attention to the "story" with collectors entangled in each work. Exhibition composition ○ Section 1: Mountain and Sea The first section "Mountain and Sea" unveils works depicting the natural environment. From ancient paintings to oil paintings and collages, the works express mountain and sea regardless of times and media. You can observe how similar materials are expressed differently depending on artist or media. - Main artists: Oh Ji-ho, Lee Eung-no, Min Wae Aung, etc. ○ Section 2: People and Life The second section "People and Life" features various aspects of people's lives including the solitude and alienation of urban life, labor exploitation and struggle, maternal affection and love, and joy and desire. In particular, Hong Seong-dam's "A Letter in Prison" with the phrase "before that red color changes," which is the exhibition title, shows the 80s and 90s as well as the artist’s sentiment. Hong Seong-dam, who was imprisoned for his pro-democracy movement, enclosed a letter containing morning glory planted in prison and hoped that the letter could arrive before the red color of the flower changes. The special and affectionate sentiment between collector and artist and the attitude of sharply pointing out the gloomy era but holding warm eyes to the world are incorporated into the entire collection. - Main artists: Oh Yoon, Hong Seong-dam, Kim Nyeong-man, Im Jik-woon, etc. ○ Section 3: Jeongjungdong, Dongjungjeong (靜中動, 動中靜) The third section “Jeongjungdong, Dongjungjeong” collected works that 주최: 세종문화회관
