Young Artist Photo Exhibition - Still Light, Yet Dark

  • Oct. 5~Nov. 2, 2023
  • Kyungpook National University Museum of Art, Gallery 1/2

Curatorial Statement

Still Light, Yet Dark, the Young-Artist Photography Exhibition of the 9th Daegu Photo Biennale in 2023, seeks to examine the unique nature of the photographic medium and photographs themselves through a contemporary lens. It explores the meaning of "the photographic" and its boundary with the medium itself in the present. Over the past five months, the artists have held workshops to discuss and develop their work, and this process is representative of their shared notion that the foundation of photography no longer rests on a manifesto, but rather on a question that speculates on its ambiguous and dynamic nature.

Curatorial Statement

Jung Jaehan

The ultimate intention behind planning 'historical exhibitions' alongside various invitational exhibitions like Biennales is to assert the legitimacy of the exhibit while subtly providing the audience with historical frameworks and guides, often driven by political motives. In every Daegu Photo Biennale, the series of 'Daegu Photo History' exhibitions have highlighted how Daegu has established itself as a 'City of Photography' through various processes and routes. They also spotlight key events and figures that we should pay attention to.

The 9th Biennale, under the theme of "Again, with Photography!" aims to answer the fundamental question, "Why does this need to be discussed here in Daegu, now?" based on the consciousness of our time. By stepping back from the current state where photography has settled and developed in Daegu, the exhibition revisits these processes from a slightly new perspective.

In the first chapter, the exhibition organizes the historical background and records that led to the establishment of photography in the Daegu region. Unlike the previously 'culturally artistic' perspective, it is explored from a 'humanities-social' perspective, reminding us that photography was inevitably accepted in broader society as an 'icon of modern civilization,' fueled by the desires of regional pioneers armed with ideas from the Enlightenment movement and the young artists' modernization movements.

The second chapter observes the process by which photography, introduced along with modernization, settled as a genre of art amid social changes like liberation and war. Audiences can indirectly experience the social discourses of the time by examining the work and media activities of the late Kim Jae-su, one of the most active photographers during the 1960s and 1970s.

In the third chapter, the exhibition cautiously re-highlights the achievements and activities of amateur photographers who have been somewhat passively evaluated in the development of Daegu photography. There may be various points for discussion if we look at their creative activities from an artistic and aesthetic viewpoint, but it is certainly not commonplace that a small regional city like Daegu has over 10 competitive universities offering photography courses, a professional artist community of over 1,000, and an innumerable number of amateurs.

Like the second chapter, the activities of various groups that held symbolic meaning, such as the [Daegu photo Association], have also been organized.

Lastly, as mentioned in the introduction, the perception of history can vary depending on the audience's values and perspectives. While it's uncertain how much the direction and content of this plan will resonate with the audience, we hope it provides an opportunity to look at things from a different viewpoint at least once. With a desire to share cultural awareness with the increasing number of visitors in their 20s and 30s, designer Sung Byung-chul has made every effort in the exhibition's composition and direction. We've minimized text to read, and distracting historical and informational materials, except for the core messages, are hidden behind QR codes to ensure an unobtrusive experience. As a result, it's an exhibition that could be satisfying in 10 minutes or still leave you wanting more after 2 hours.

Curatorial Statement

This is an outdoor exhibition designed as an extension of “Before – After”, one of the sections of the thematic exhibition. It compares the "then" and "now" through past and present photographs of the same places and people, presented in pairs, revealing the temporality and changes between them.

What is compared is the landscape and people of Daegu. Minwoo Park's Gelatin dry plate explores the places that were photographed by the Japanese during the occupation for resource extraction and recreated exactly as they were in the past. He focuses on resources such as rivers, buildings, and major infrastructure, and in order to re-create the feel of the historical photographs, he recreated the glass plate films with glass and emulsion. Park's project looks at Daegu's present through the lens of a 100-year-old photograph, which provides a special experience as it allows the viewer to observe the physical changes and their meanings captured in a relic of imperialism, and thus may expand one's view of Daegu.

The Daegu Metro Line 3 was built as an overground railway. Changmo Park and Geongju Bae photographed the site where the metro line was to run in 2010 before and after construction, illustrating the changes in the urban landscape. Infrastructures are vital in cities, and transportation in particular, as it enables the daily commute from one place to another. Anticipating the changes in the urban skyline, the two artists captured the places along the planned route. It is a special ability of photography to accurately record such changes of a city, which can be an inspiration not only for art and photography, but also for general urban practice.

If the comparison of landscapes is based on the cold properties of photography, the comparison of people recalls the saying "photography is the warmest form of science". The artist juxtaposes photographs taken at different points in a person's life, allowing the viewer to feel and imagine the long gap in between. Daeik Son's photographs reveal a 70-year gap from 1952, when he was a cadet, to the present 2023, demonstrating the power of photographic comparison. For an exhibition outside the white cube, location is important. There is a sense of place where many people connect and stories accumulate. The train station was chosen because it not only transports people, but also serves as a place of cultural exchange and plays an important role in the history of a city. Located in the center, Dongdaegu Station is a place where people, things, and information meet, making it a perfect location for an outdoor exhibition. At Dongdaegu Station, the gateway to the city, you can meet Daegu's then and now.

Curatorial Statement

With the communication and technological advances of this century, photography has evolved at an unprecedented pace. In particular, the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the emergence of AI are expected to have a tremendous impact on human creative activities. Photography, one of the first mechanical media, has long been recognized as a way of looking at the world, gathering evidence and projecting an artist's idea, but we are about to face significant changes in its meaning and existence.

The four photographers participating in Encounter 7 are outstanding artists, carefully selected through portfolio reviews, who offer a glimpse into their own artistic worlds and into the present and future of photography.

Hyunjin Kwon renders nature as abstract images through fusion and hybridization. Visual Poetry is a work that shows the visual illusions perceived through the closed eye and the virtual off-screen beyond the primary way of seeing. It conveys a dreamy and lyrical feeling through the arrangement of colors and movement.

Hyeonsu Kim's Urban Greenery is a work that portrays contemporary life, which adheres to and plays roles dictated by society, obscuring their true inner selves. The trees in Urban Greenery represent the coordinates of the filming locations and illustrate the contemporary souls that mold themselves into the forms required by society while retaining the essence of their existence.

Composed of different photographs taken at different times and places, Ongiong Lee's Cotton Candy and Buddha consists of nine groups. The work reflects personal experience and cultural awareness of death, and includes dialogues of misunderstanding and undefined questions between the artist's intentions and the viewer.

Hyuntaek Cho's Stone Market is based on the long human history of religion and idolatry. He looks at the fixed narrative of religion and faith involved in the process of a stone factory through a contemporary lens, and his panoramic views raise questions about the meaning of faith in our time when science and industrialization have become the backbone. We hope that the works presented in this exhibition will highlight the current scene of Korean photography and that the four artists will leave a significant mark on its future.

Curatorial Statement

Still Light, Yet Dark, the Young-Artist Photography Exhibition of the 9th Daegu Photo Biennale in 2023, seeks to examine the unique nature of the photographic medium and photographs themselves through a contemporary lens. It explores the meaning of "the photographic" and its boundary with the medium itself in the present. Over the past five months, the artists have held workshops to discuss and develop their work, and this process is representative of their shared notion that the foundation of photography no longer rests on a manifesto, but rather on a question that speculates on its ambiguous and dynamic nature.

Recently, the winning entry in a world-renowned photography competition turned out to be an AI-generated image. The entrant refused to accept the prize, citing the need for an open discussion about contemporary photography, and the organizers removed the image from the competition. Ironically, it was organized by a company heavily invested in AI technology, and we begin the main questions of this exhibition with the kind of sting left by this incident.

The most discouraging aspect of this case is that the aesthetic criteria of what we now consider a "good" or "well-taken" photograph is already a category that can be reproduced by analyzing and combining existing images. The fact that the artistic endeavor in contemporary photography operates within such a framework raises doubts about what the art of photography can do now. Above all, we should ask ourselves how we can break out of such a momentum. The good news, however, is that such images shed some light on questions about the current state of photography. For example, you obviously need a camera to take a picture. Whether it's a camera obscura or a film/digital camera, a picture requires a camera. Even photograms use a device that function as a camera. In this photo, however, I can't find anything that acts as a camera. Worse, it doesn't reproduce anything, it doesn't point to anything. The idea of reproducibility and indexicality, which I think is the essence of photography, seems to be completely discarded.

The easiest thing to do would be to discredit it as a photograph. Such a denial, however, leaves us even more uncomfortable: the image before our eyes, rendered in its most human and photographic form through the training of countless photographs, a reproduction of a reproduction, is undoubtedly recognized as a photograph, even by the judges. How can we be sure that it was not taken with a camera? Are we sure that it doesn't reproduce or refer to anything? Most photographs are already consumed digitally, controlled by algorithms and if we can't even tell an image from a photo, would it be enough to say: "Yes, let's just call that a photo, too"?

Technology does not regress, and photography in particular is a medium that depends on it and has evolved with it. The rise of more vivid, artificial images seems inevitable, and consequently the important question seems to be what makes a photo authentic. The aversion to these images may exist in a state of confusion, and thus it may be worthwhile to reevaluate the relationship between the subject and the object of photographic production. Furthermore, all technologies are bound by their economic and political constraints, which calls for a constant critical attitude towards the technological visual world and an effort to discover the possibility of photographic art beyond it.

There's a lot to do. However, this exhibition does not seek answers, as we believe that our doubts and questions are what make photography what it is. Let's remember our first encounter with the quantum world; the feeling of disorientation and confusion, unable to accept the fact that everything is deterministically indeterminate. The virtual is already hyper-real and vice versa. Now that the virtual and the real seem to be fused, any attempt to separate them seems futile. Photography is in the same situation. The only thing we can do is to keep asking questions and accumulating doubts.

In their own way, the five artists on this long journey challenge the status quo and show the limits of contemporary photography. Their subjects rarely converge: artificial intelligence, illegal videos, wildfire, war, photographers, shamans and women workers; yet they all share the same effort to push the boundaries of what photography can be.

Each artist's mind wanders aimlessly, but what they all have in common is the conviction that photography has never been something static, but must be constantly challenged and renewed. The aim of this exhibition under the slogan "Again, Photography!" is not to define contemporary photography, but rather to appreciate its indeterminate and fluid nature and to imagine its potentials. The reason this seemingly futile endeavor is important is that it is not so different from understanding the world we live in today.

Curatorial Statement

From July 4 to 30, we invited residents of Daegu and Gyeongsangbuk-do to submit photos of their school days taken before 1989. A total of 37 people participated, resulting in 50 precious old photos. Presented as an exhibition, the history, culture and memories contained in the photos are recalled and shared by young and old alike.

Hidden in closets, drawers and faded albums, the old photographs not only establish the identity of the local culture, but also provide a glimpse into past school days.

The silver salt photographs from the past have been reproduced to give them their original feel and character, which will hopefully inspire pride in the local culture across different time, space and generations.

Curatorial Statement

This is an event that is open to the public and aims to promote the Daegu Photo Biennale as a civic festival. Under the motto "Daegu Citizen Photographer (Curator)," the festival will allow for participation and planning by the citizens themselves, and will present a wide range of photographs that offer a glimpse of free imagination and experimental spirit. Breaking out of the box, the festival will provide an opportunity to experience the different perspectives of individuals in contemporary society in various spaces around Daegu.

To encourage the participation of local artists and share the diverse views of contemporary photo lovers while exploring the potentials of the photographic medium, the festival will present various exhibitions, both indoor and outdoor, in different locations around the city, promoting free communication and the exchange of rich ideas among various artists in person.

기획의 글

2023 대구사진비엔날레 워크숍은 주제전의 기획 의도에 발맞추어 ‘사진의 힘’이 실제 시각문화의 역사에서 어떤 놀라운 가시적 세계를 열어주었는가를 주제별로 구분하여 다룬다. 나아가 사진의 고유한 힘이 디지털 기술, 인터넷, 뉴미디어, 인공지능 등 오늘의 최첨단 기술과 융합하여 어떻게 확장되고 있는가를 살펴본다.

제1세션은 대구사진비엔날레 주제전의 내용을 요약하여 관람자들에게 소개하는 자리다. 비엔날레 총감독과 주제전 기획자로부터 직접 주제전의 취지와 내용, 출품작에 대한 상세한 설명을 듣는 기회를 제공한다. 제2세션 <인간을 보완한 기계>에서는 기술 매체로서의 사진이 지닌 고유한 힘에 집중한다. 사진이 기계의 신속성과 정확성을 바탕에 깔고 있으나 그 매체를 다루는 자는 인간이기에 기계의 눈과 인간의 눈은 상호 협력과 보완 관계에 있다. 따라서 여기서 다루는 주제는 기계를 통해 본 인간의 관점, 인간의 눈을 보완한 기계의 눈이라 할 수 있다. 제3세션 <뉴테크놀로지와의 제휴>는 급속히 발전한 뉴테크놀로지가 ‘사진의 힘’과 맞물려 시각문화에 어떤 변화를 몰고 오는지를 다룬다. 이 새로운 문화 현상의 바탕에는 사진의 잠재력이 바탕에 깔려있다. 따라서 이 변화는 ‘근본적으로’ 새롭다기보다는 오히려 사진의 고유한 힘이 뉴테크놀로지를 통해 확장된 것으로 볼 수 있다. 제4세션 <뉴트렌드의 도전>은 최근 이슈로 떠오르는 주제들을 다룬다. 이 세션에서 다루는 주제들은 사진의 문제에만 국한되지는 않지만 사진의 생산과 배포, 수용의 모든 과정에서 혁신적인 변화를 가져올 것으로 예상된다. 제5세션 <사진과 현대미술>은 사진과 현대미술의 상관관계를 다룬다. 사진의 매체적 속성이 회화와 어떻게 다른지, 현대미술은 사진을 어떻게 활용하는지를 살펴본다. 마지막 <특별세션>과 <작가와의 대화>에서는 참여 작가들의 작품 세계를 듣는 자리를 마련함과 동시에 다양한 여러 관점에서 성찰이 요구되는 특별 주제들을 따로 묶어 다룬다.

Curatorial Statement

Curator: Jinyoung Kim (IRASUN)

Contemporary art books show originality and experimentalism with their unique structures and forms, highlighting their distinct materiality. As media theorist Marshall McLuhan pointed out decades ago, the emergence of various new media can render existing media obsolete, but it can also herald a new era for the old media.

In the world of photobooks, the term ‘photobook phenomenon’ refers to the photobook frenzy that emerged in the 2000s. "The term ‘photobook’ did not appear in literature and discussions before the 21st century," remarked writer David Campany. “However, its use and interest in it have grown in recent times.” Lesley A. Martin, the Creative Director of Aperture Foundation, characterizes current photobooks as "a new phenomenon and experimental space." Although the earliest photobooks were introduced in the mid-nineteenth century by photographers such as William Henry Fox Talbot and Anna Atkins, why are today’s photobooks considered novel?

Historically, photobooks primarily served as containers for individual images. The formula 'photobook = sum of individual photographs' was mostly correct. In contrast, contemporary photobooks challenge the idea of merely being a collection of individual photographs.

When a photograph is included in a photobook, it evolves and transforms its original significance, elevating the book from a mere container to a one-of-a kind work of art. In essence, the novelty of the contemporary photobook is captured by the formula of 'photobook > sum of individual images'. As photographs are selected, edited, and structurally planned, and once printing is finalized, a photobook comes to completion. Photographs become part of a dramatic event known as a book, an autonomous form of art, during this process. A photobook experience is unique because it combines the book's physical properties with the reader's perceptions and interpretations.

As a result, in the realm of contemporary art and photography culture, photobooks have evolved into vital and potent vehicles for artistic expression. Since the 2000s, the production and dissemination of photobooks have gained momentum, accompanied by a surge in related events, as well as the proliferation of discussions and research dedicated to these creations.

In this context, this exhibition presents 100 inventive and distinct photobooks that effectively exemplify the unique power of the photographic medium under ten themes. The "Books on Photobooks" section offers an opportunity to explore publications that delve into the history and significance of photobooks. Additionally, the exhibition includes contributions in the form of commentaries from domestic and international photographers, editors, designers, publishers, curators, and researchers. By sharing their expertise and perspectives on photobooks based on their own experiences, the exhibition illuminates the value of contemporary photobooks. Through this, it aspires to explore the boundless potential of photobook as a medium and to delve into the current and future landscapes of the art of photography.

Curatorial Statement

Temporality is an important element in photography. A picture can only be taken if one is present at that time and place, which also affects the function of a camera's shutter. Photography has the ability to record and document.

Over the years, Bangcheon Market, once a bustling traditional market, has undergone many changes. More than 1,500 shops have closed, artists have begun to congregate in the decaying area, and a street of murals called "Kim-Gwangseok-gil" has been created. These changes have been captured by various photographers in their own way. The 20 merchants who lived through the changes and remembered the history of the area, and who still run mills, butcher shops, restaurants, etc., are now elderly. With their help, I began to search for the past while recording the present, documenting the places and people that are about to change in a precious and meaningful way.

The documentary nature of photography lies in its ability to capture precise details. When "Eugène Atzé" documented Paris, it may have been an unremarkable cityscape at the time, but today his photographs offer a rare glimpse into the city in the 19th century. In addition, the bowler hats and walking sticks of the three young men in August Zander's portrait of "Young Farmers" convey a sense of irony and humor.

Sangkwon Han, Inmo Hwang, Taewook Kim, Thomas Park, and Andre Kim provided valuable photographs of the old Bangcheon market, and photographers Taewook Kim and Jaehyun Seok, who are participating in the exhibition, photographed the current Bangcheon area and its merchants, which are presented in an outdoor exhibition.

The opening of the gallery at Bangcheon Market in 2010 was a great opportunity to witness all the changes together with the residents who made this meaningful project with Hyunchul Na possible.

Artist's Note

The history of Daegu is the history of the people who have silently stood by Daegu in their own places. It is the history of people who have always buried Daegu in their hearts, never forgetting where they came from even when they went away. I believe that comparing the people of Daegu from 70 to 20 years ago through the photographs is a meaningful work to reflect on their history as well as Daegu.

Artist's Note

When the Daegu Metro Line 3 was planned to run above ground instead of underground, it was expected to change the urban landscape. Since 2010, I have been photographing along the route of the metro line from Chilgok to Beomul, both during and after its construction, and I continue to notice the changes in Daegu's landscape.

The glass plate photographs taken during the Japanese occupation are the oldest photographs of Daegu's landscape. The work records the changes over the past 100 years through the old glass plates. It compares modern Daegu with the present.

Ongiong Lee

Ongiong Lee (b. 1982) explores the gap between the 'inner' and 'outer' existence of everyday life through her work. She attempts to reveal phenomena that cannot be described in words but seem to exist, accompanied by an exploration of the form of expression of photographic images. The constant experience of loss in life and the things that are its by-products are the subjects of her work.

Hyuntaek Cho

Hyuntaek Cho is primarily interested in the scenes of events that take place in the urban peripheries and their extraordinary landscapes in Korea. This is partly related to his upbringing in the small town of Naju, Jeonnam Province. The artist searches for the many fragments left in the shadow of Korea's rapid industrialization and uses them to portray the realities reminiscent of a mirage and dark humor through photography.

Yeongyeong Min

Yeongyeong Min focus on shamans and workers, who have been the most lifelessly represented in photographs. In her work with the long title I've never shaken a fan bell, but I carry a charm in my wallet, Min constantly observes her mother, a shaman, and recalls her memories while collecting photographs and cutting and folding them according to her own rules. This somewhat tedious process is a negation and resistance to the banal shaman photograph in which they were separated from the world and a ritual exercise to reveal the shaman as someone's daughter, wife, and mother.

Geumbi Bahk

In Dubm and PullPull Geumbi Bahk argues that the history of AI algorithms for images is actually no different from what photography has been doing all along. She shows how the history of mechanics, chemistry and optics in photography operate in different modes, but with the same desire. <풀풀(?)> reveals the process by which bird sounds are transformed into images by an algorithm, while questioning what authenticates the image. <덤(Dumb?)> examines how commodity capitalism led by "home styling" has taken control of photography and explores the various techniques and algorithms involved to explore the human being left blank. In , Jihoon Yang analyzes the format and content of illegal videos on various platforms, arguing that their typical format alone has become highly stimulating. He focuses on the "pillarbox" created by the different aspect ratios of screen and video, the shape of which is triangular in many illegal videos, eventually becoming a narrative and image in itself. is based on the artist's experience of the Inwangsan wildfire, where the tragic situation became a mere subject for social media. The photographs present this tragedy reincarnated in another.

다섯 명의 작가는 저마다의 방식으로 기성의 사진들과 불화하며 지금 우리가 고민해야 할 사진의 경계를 가시화한다. 그들이 다루는 대상은 인공지능 알고리즘, 불펌 영상, 인스타그램 필터, 무당, 여성 노동자 등 하나로 수렴되지 않는다. 하지만 상상 가능한 사진의 영역을 조금 더 넓히려는 노력이었음은 동일하다. 박금비는 인공지능 알고리즘을 탐구하며 그것의 역할이 사실은 지금까지 사진이 해온 일과 다를 바 없음을 폭로한다. 이를 통해 사진을 둘러싼 기계-화학-광학의 역사가 어떻게 동시대에 전혀 다른 모습으로, 하지만 같은 욕망으로 작동하는지 말한다. 양지훈은 각종 플랫폼을 가득 채운 불펌영상들의 형식과 내용을 분석하며 이제는 불펌영상이 갖고 있는 시각적 형식만으로도 말초적 자극을 생산하는 지경에 이르렀다고 주장한다. 작가가 가장 집중하는 형식은 삼각형 필러 박스이다. 화면과 영상의 비율 차이로 생기는 이 검은 박스가 불펌을 위해 삼각형이 되었고 이 검은 삼각형이 하나의 서사가 되고 이미지가 되었다고 말한다. 정현민은 세리 레빈을 다시 호명한다. 워커 에반스의 사진을 복제하며 사진의 원본성에 질문을 던졌던 그녀의 실험을 이어받아 더 이상 원본과 복제의 구분이 무의미한 시대에 인스타그램의 인공지능 필터를 개입시킨다. 워커 에반스의 사진을 동시대의 기술로 재촬영하며 실제와 가상의 구분이 어떻게 가능한지 사진 매체 실험을 진행한다. 민영영과 현다혜는 지금까지 가장 관성적 사진으로 재현되어 온 대상으로 무당과 여성 노동자를 지목한다. 민영영은 본인의 엄마이자 무당인 대상을 지속적으로 기록하며 그 사진들을 자신의 규칙에 따라 포개고 겹친다. 그저 무당이라고만 규정될 수 없는 한 사람의 복잡성을 드러내기 위해 최대한 다양한 층위에서 대상을 드러내 보고자 한다. 현다혜는 피해자나 영웅의 위치에서만 재현되어 온 여성 공장노동자들에 집중한다. 작가는 지속적으로 노동자들과 대화하며 그들이 일을 마치는 깊은 밤 작업복을 입은 채로 작은 소풍을 나선다. 그리고 작가가 그리는 가장 아름다운 모습으로 그들에게 연대의 손을 내민다. 이처럼 작가들의 고민은 방향성 없이 떠돌지만, 그들의 작업이 분명 말하는 것은 사진은 한 번도 고정되어 본 적 없는 끝없이 극복되고 갱신되어야 할 무엇임을 잊지 않고자 한다는 것이다.

Hyeonmin Jeong

In his irritatingly titled work Photo, Photo, Photo, Photo, Photo, About Photography?, Hyeonmin Jeong recounts a long conversation with other professional photographers that is filled with doubt. In discussing the process of how a photograph is made, they conclude that the pursuit of a "good photograph" ends up as an image-averaging process. As a result, a "good photograph" becomes predictable, to the extent that it can be numerically generated by an image-making algorithm. Filled with doubt, the artist reflects on his own career, relentlessly questioning what photography really is.

Dahye Hyun

Dahae Hyun is interested in photographs of female factory workers, who are usually portrayed as either victims or heroes. In response, Capping shows middle-aged women working in factories at night. Remembering that she lied about her mother's job, who worked in a factory, the artist begins to open up the "unspoken" images that have always remained hidden. She captures them in their uniforms, only at night, offering solidarity and comfort through reflection. The series Blanks documents the journey on the Naminoue. Aboard the "Sewol"-like ship, she gazes at the spaces between here and there, realizing how helpless photography can be in the face of absolute absence. These two works evoke scenes that have been neglected in the past for various reasons, but still cling to them in hope.

Raymond Depardon

Berlin

The city of Berlin has been the focal point of historical, political, and cultural changes. Raymond Depardon's book <Berlin> presents significant events and locations chronologically from 1961 to 2013. It not only depicts significant events and historical locations, such as the construction of the Berlin Wall, visits by Robert Kennedy and Queen Elizabeth, the Tunis Congress, and the wall's collapse, but it also visually narrates the city's ever-changing and reimagined landscape, from bustling streets to quiet corners. The book highlights the importance of the camera as a witness to the times by using simple fonts on striking red pages and applying film-like patterns on its interior pages. The vast horizontal arrangement comprises black-and-white photographs that powerfully communicate the weight of the eras.

Samuel James

Nightairs

Fireflies spend a significant amount of their existence as larvae and only use bioluminescence for communication during this brief stage of development. In the woodlands of the Appalachian Mountains, Samuel James investigates the fleeting realm of light created by dying fireflies. He meticulously sets up his equipment each night and waits for the fireflies at a remote location. He was able to capture each individual light with short exposures, while abstract light patterns like lines and whirlwinds were photographed with longer exposures. James claims that as time passes, light builds up, and this building up is what he refers to as photography. While the movement of the firefly appears calm from a distance, up close, it seems as though they are darting around. The softcover book "Night Air" is bound with a yellow thread that evokes the brightness of a firefly, and by using black pages and yellow writing, it perfectly captures the dance of light and darkness throughout.

Stephen Gill

The Pillar

Stephen Gill, who focuses on capturing images of wild animals, had installed stakes 4 feet high, 2 inches wide on a field. By installing a mirroring stake on the other side, he had positioned a motion sensor end camera that snaps by any movement it detects. This idea of installing stakes has gradually but surely lead the birds from mid-air to land. In the series <The Pillar>, there are moments of birds kicking off for flight or even incomprehensible moments of these birds’ making sudden movements. Gill states that he had just provided the environment for these photos to be taken, and the birds were what made this series possible. By adapting a progress of stepping away from his direct authority over the works, there are various moments that are organically captured by these birds.

Barbara Bosworth

The Heavens

A large-format 8x10 camera and a telescope were used to take long exposure pictures of the night sky for the book <The Heavens> by Barbara Bosworth. This piece depicts many nocturnal sceneries, such as the pathways of stars and moonlight, to portray the awe of a sky filled with stars. While astrophotography often depicts stars with clarity and sharpness, Bosworth's images might appear less clear and diffused in that setting. Bosworth, however, captures the majesty of the illuminating celestial bodies even through fuzzy photographs rather than attempting to capture an accurate representation of the night sky. Bosworth created three artist's books, <Sunspots>, <The Moon>, and <The Heavens> with reproductions in this book, as a tribute to Galileo Galilei, who was the first to examine the sky with a telescope. The book delineates the flow of the pictures, complemented with supplementary visual resources in the appendices, by using a variety of paper kinds and page sizes.

Nancy Floyd

Weathering Time

Nancy Floyd has been taking daily self-portraits since 1982 to document her development over that time. Over 2,500 of these photos make up <Weathering Time> which emphasizes not just her physical metamorphosis but also changes in relationships, clothes, and cultural and technological surroundings. Readers can identify themes—companions in the frame, items present, costumes worn, and noteworthy occasions—by examining the photographs, which are primarily presented in consistent black and white and arranged in a grid fashion. The book depicts the essence of time's evolution in addition to Floyd's personal trip.

Michael Wolf

Architecture of Density-Hong Kong

Mega cities are in spotlight in Michael Wolf’s works. What he focused upon in Hong Kong was the extremely densely built buildings in the main part of the city. Because of the sheer population of the city, it grew rather vertically higher up to save space of the limited amount of land. The artist has captured these cityscapes in high places via telephoto lens. By eliminating the sky and the street, he had filled up the whole frame with just the suffocatingly dense building, which gives the impression of the building’s continuity outside the frame. This in a way overwhelms the viewer by blurring of where the building starts and ends. In <Architecture of Density-Hong Kong>, depicts this scene of overwhelming density.

Takashi Homma

Trails

The works of Takashi Homma <trails> follows the story of the Shirekoto National Park. As the number of deer that inhabit the park as soared, to control this outbreak the deer hunting had been legalized. Homma, who had a particular interest in this animal, climbed up the mountain following a hunter and had taken the moments of this violence. These traces of blood now allow the viewers to visualize the trembling run of the dying creature, tumbling through the woods making its blood marks all the way to a stream nearby, ending its life there. The hole in the cover as well as the bold red pages that follow reminds the readers of a bullet hole.

Diana Markosian

Santa Barbara

Dianna Markosian’s <Santa Barbara> is a book depicting the memories of immigration. As a young age of 7, the artist moved to a new environment from Moscow to Santa Barbara, not knowing what they were facing. There, stood a new house, and a new ‘dad’ Markosian worked on their rather abstract trail of memory, then soon directing the photograph accordingly. A writer would compose a scenario, actors would act out each family members. The set was built following the context of an old paragraph of pictures from the past. This book crosses between the directed photographs and actual photos from the past, blurring the lines of authenticity. The readers follow a chronological order, being hooked by the storyline as if it’s a show.

Arjan de Nooy

99:1

The wide range and inconsistency of the object captured almost questions the reader if they were done by a single artist. <99:1> highlights the force of versatility of photography itself. Arjan de Nooy collects inspiration from <Exercices de Style>, written by a French novelist Raymond Queneau. In this piece of literature, the style of the pen-craft drifts with 99 different types. Inspired by this, Nooy as well makes these variations with his works, transforming one piece into 99. The artist crops, puzzles, screenshots, puts it in a Polaroid and uses styles from famously known artists to make this drift in style. The 99 chapters this book consists will bring joy matching the label of the style with the pieces like a puzzle. <99:1> represents the unlimited boundaries of the art of photography.

Deanna Dikeman

Leaving and Waving

Deanna Dikeman, who mainly focuses on what interpretation a house and a family have, has made a record of her parents saying their goodbyes to her of summer 1991, her age 37. Then for the following 27 years, she has repeatedly captured the moments of her parents waving goodbye. <Leaving and Waving> is a record of these of what may seem mundane events, but shows consistent warmth of her parents. As time goes by, they get older and the father no longer appears, but this doesn’t strike the readers just sad and blue. The book is saturated with various shades of plum, magenta, apricot, and light blue. If we look closely on the printed title, the author, and the publisher, we can see some letters waving like the waves of a warm goodbye.

사진과 회화 사이-세계를 모델링 하는 어떤 방법들

  • 개인전(리움 미술관 플라토 갤러리, 원 앤제이 갤러리, 고은 사진미술관, 은평 역사 한옥 박물관, 사비나 미술관)

강연개요

회화와 사진은 인간이 세계를 시각적으로 이해하기 위해 모델링한 두 개의 대표적인 방법이다. 수만년의 역사를 가진 회화와 200년이 되지 않는 사진은 유사성과 더불어 이질성도 많다. 그 유사성과 이질성은 한 때 두 매체를 아주 서로 다른 것으로 인식하게 했으나, 디지털 사진의 등장 이후 양 매체는 특이한 방식으로 닮아 간다. 사신은 기록성과 현실성을 잃고 회화를 닮아가며 회화는 사진을 인용, 이용하며 유사해진다. 혹시 이 두 모델링 방식의 구분은 의미를 잃은 것이나 아닐까? 이상의 변화와 현상에 대해 다시 한번 생각해보자는 것이 이 강연의 주된 내용이다.

주체의 내면에서 객체의 깊이로 : 초현실주의 사진과 객체지향 존재론

  • 빌렘 플루서 <몸짓> 번역 감수

강연개요

보이지 않는 주체의 내면, 감정, 이념 대신 광학적으로 포착될 수 있는 객체만을 담아낼 수 있는 사진은 예술가들로 하여금 주체의 내면이 아닌 사물들에서 예술적 가치가 있는 무언가를 찾으려는 자극을 주었다. 특히 초현실주의는 예술의 객체지향적 방향을 추구했던 선구자 그룹이었다. 이들이 사진을 적극 활용한 건, 사진이 일상적 객체들을 그 표면적 성질을 넘어 어떤 ‘깊이’를 갖는 것으로 드러내 보이는 효과적인 매체였기 때문이다. 사진을 통해 일상 사물들은 ‘마치 ~ 처럼 보이고’, 그 사물과는 존재론적으로 거리가 먼 다른 사물들과의 ‘관계’ 속에서 드러나 보이며, 그를 통해 세계 전체가 우리에게 드러나는 그 표면적 모습과는 다른 어떤 숨겨진 깊이와 관계를 맺고 있는 ‘초-현실’로 드러나게 했다. 본 강의에서는 초현실주의 사진에 대한 로잘린드 크라우스, 할 포스터의 논의와 그레이엄 하먼의 객체지향철학을 참고하여 ‘사진의 힘’에 대해 생각해본다.

'예술은 쉽고 삶은 어렵다.' 한 평생을 '어디 예술 아닌 것 없오?'를 외치며 '아무 것도 아닌 듯'한 예술을 찾아 나서고, 아무도 가보지 않은 '길 없는 길' , '길 아닌 길'을 '개념의 덩어리'를 짊어지고 "불가피"하며 "당위적"인 삶의 실존성을 찾아 '예술 행각'질을 지금까지 벌려 왔고  아슬아슬하게  끝까지 가보고 싶었다. 앞으로도 아마 그럴 것이다. 왜 '아마'라는 단정적이지 않은 단어를 쓰느냐 하면 나도 내 하제의 일을 알지 못 하기 때문이다. 내가 보내온 길을 탓하지 말라. 그런 길이 왕도는 아니더라도 부끄럽지만 한 가닥 '모기소리' 같은 외침의 길은 돨 것이기 때문이다. 너희는 언제 한 번 그런 생각이라도 해본 적이 있더냐???

강연개요

사진은 '낯설게 하기'의 예술입니다. 일상적 눈높이에서는 감흥 없이 지나쳤던 정경들도 하늘의 눈높이에서는 이채로운 자태를 드러냅니다. 드론은 촬영자에게 다양한 눈높이를 부여함으로써 익숙함의 베일 뒤에 숨겨왔던 피사체의 천의 얼굴에 다가서게 합니다. 본 강의는 드론을 이용해 촬영할 수 있는 다양한 시각을 접하는 기회로 작가가 직접 촬영한 사진과 영상을 통해 하늘에서 바라본 창의적인 시선을 경험하게 합니다. 또한 드론 촬영에 필수인 항공 항공안전법 및 관련 법규에 대해 알아봅니다.

강연개요

본 강연은 진실의 가치가 위협받고 거짓이 득세하는 ‘포스트 진실 시대에 사진 예술의 달라진 위상과 가치를 논한다. 디지털 사진의 도래와 함께 사진의 객관성과 진실성은 붕괴했다. 그러나 이러한 전통적인 사진성의 붕괴는 디지털의 변조성을 창작의 계기로 인식하는 21세기 사진예술에 새로운 가능성을 열어주었다. 본 강연은 몇 가지 선도적인 사례들을 통해 이러한 사진의 변화를 살펴본다.

강연개요

인간의 시각적 능력을 초월하는 사진의 순간 포착의 능력은 빨리 뛰는 말의 발걸음, 충격이 우유 표면이 닿을 때 형성하는 왕관 모양뿐이 아니다. 육안이 포착할 수 없는 물리적 현상 뿐만 아니라, 사진의 순간 포착은 인간의 무의식 혹은 '전의식 pre-conscious'을 드러낸다. 인간의 의식이 억압 혹은 통제하지 못하는 무의식과 욕망, 전의식적 행태를 폭로한다. 미국의 1940년대에서 1960년대에 이르는 사진의 후기 모더니즘은 사진의 순간 포착을 통한 이에 대한 탐구다.
