Legend of Miryang

I live in Miryang, the town of sunlight. I settled here ten years ago because it was getting harder for me to live with all of the farm work and, with its clean air and water, this was a perfect place to take a rest. However, my life nowadays has become so sad and bitter. Transmission towers, called 765 something, are said to be built in the neighborhood, and it is making so much trouble.

Haegue Yang

Through this ‘dance’ of bells, Yang’s work allusively suggests the topic of sound as the beginning force that opens up the world (as it is told in many ancient myths). Such an interest in this ‘cosmology’ also manifests as a representation of ‘orbit’ in Yang’s works. The arrangement of works gives an impression that they could move along the trajectory drawn by the vinyl tape on the floor.

Zero Dimension / Kato Yoshihiro

Such activities marked a climax in 1970 when they organized the anti-Expo alliance to crush up the Osaka Exposition. While many avant-garde artists gave up confrontation with capitalism and were agitated by the Expo, Zero Dimension continued their “rituals” at many local universities and Expo venues in association with Zenkyoto (A Student-body Struggle Committee, 1968?1969).

Choi Sunghun + Park Sunmin

Electric cords create a unique impressive landscape of Korea. Most electric cords are entangled in a surprisingly complex way.We often witness magpies or sparrows perching on the lines. Considering the strong electric power flowing inside the line cover, the idyllic scene of the birds would soon turn into a risky play prior to an impending dangerous disaster.

Medium Earth

The accumulation of moving images and sounds that makes up Medium Earth comprise an audiovisual essay on the millennial time of geology and the infrastructural unconscious of Southern California.
