I first read the art notebook (November 1974 issue) when I was
in my second year of college. I bought it for a feature I liked,
but then decided to subscribe at work and continued until I
retired in 2020. It is an art critic magazine that has been
digging deeply into artists and exhibitions that have been
attracting attention mainly in contemporary art for 73 years
since its inception, but it is rumored that it will be
discontinued due to the influence of young people's character
alienation and the development of digital communication tools,
and an art notebook is also published every other month. It has
been difficult to operate. In addition, the society and economy
have been forced to stagnate due to the influence of the new
corona for the past two years, and art is no exception.
The theme of this solo exhibition is to turn the art world that
has stopped turning. Therefore, as an art expression, he
continues to rotate the art magazine, which has become one of
the sources of his own expression, on the box during the solo
exhibition period, with jokes. The booklet, which rotates at
high speed, makes it unreadable not only to pick it up and see
its contents, but also to read the photos and letters on the
cover. On the contrary, the art magazines that were turned
around with the intention of cheering are stripped of their
meaning from photographs and letters, leaving only a visual
image. The earth by "google earth" is projected on the front
wall, and it keeps rotating to confirm the date from November
1974 to March 2020. This is an opportunity to re-examine the
foundations that have shaped my work of art, and it is also an
exhibition that serves as a gateway to the challenge of new
expressions.
