Artist Do-Ho Suh, known for his translucent fabrics sculptures, is currently the focus of two solo exhibitions in Asia. The first, at Seoul's National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Arts, features a gargantuan replica of two homes the artist has previously lived in
韩国雕塑家和安装艺术家多和苏探索了家园的概念与一个令人眼花缭乱的新作品展示在亚洲。他在香港莱曼·莫潘画廊的展览展示了他在玻璃下的标志性宝石色织物雕塑:用他狡猾的触感打造了无价的家居物品。与此同时,在首尔国家现代和当代艺术博物馆开幕典礼上,他的最大艺术品是他以前住过的两栋房子的1:1比例的复制品,其中一栋是在另一栋里面。
同时的展览提供了两个互补的“任务”,由艺术家探索主题的个人空间。半透明的有机聚酯突出了我们在家里日常生活中的“无形记忆”的绚丽色彩。Suh选择了这种面料,这是一种曾经在韩国传统的夏季服装中使用过的面料,“因为它很便宜,而且很容易买到,所以我不想给布料本身太多的价值”。
在韩国,这片广阔的新空间为他的全尺寸复制品提供了一个空前规模的舞台:他童年时代的家,用紫色的布料,悬挂在他位于罗德岛的第一栋公寓楼的娱乐活动中。这幅真人大小的作品有12米x15米大,足以让参观者在艺术家的个人空间上有独特的视角。
画廊也提供了一个创造性的机会。Suh说,巨大的地窗和天花板结合了一座重建过的古宫的景观,这座宫殿曾经矗立在同一地点。“当你走近画廊的空间时,我的半透明作品就在观众和更长的视野之间,所以它变成了五栋房子:我的两栋房子;博物馆;宫殿;然后是西奥尔。”
工程如此庞大复杂,Suh采用了3D扫描机,以确保尺寸精确。
艺术家说:“这是我第一次做了这么大的布料雕塑。”
“这是很有挑战性的,但我认为技术上我们积累了如此多的经验和知识,现在我们可以做任何事情。
就像白宫一样。"
尽管在香港莱曼毛品(LehmannMaupin)展出了一系列较小的单件,如马桶、加热器和电灯开关,但苏说,将这些作品分开会引起人们对细节的关注。这位艺术家解释道:“正如展览的标题所说,它们实际上是标本。”这座画廊大小相似,形状与苏先生自己的公寓相仿。画廊被完全涂成黑色,每件作品都布置得像“在家”一样,从后面照出来,以提高其透明度。
The works were so large and complex that Suh employed a 3D scanning machine to ensure the dimensions were precise
Says Suh: 'As you approach the gallery space my translucent piece is between the viewer and the longer view, so it becomes five homes-within-homes: my two inside; the museum; the palace; and then Seoul'
The life-sized work measures 12m x 15m; visitors can walk through the installation for a unique perspective on the artist’s personal space
Suh left no detail out of his deftly printed fabric
The vast space offered Suh a new context for the full-scale replica of his traditional Korean childhood home, suspended within a larger reproduction of his first apartment building in Providence
The translucent fabric highlights in brilliant colour the 'invisible memory' of our daily experiences at home
Suh opted for a translucent organza-like polyester, once used for traditional Korean summer wear, because of its low cost and availability
Concurrently, an exhibition of Suh's work at Lehmann Maupin gallery in Hong Kong showcases his signature fabric sculptures of household items
