When I Become you, Yeesookyung in Taipei
李受俓:當我變成你
Jun.06 - Aug.02 - 2015
Exhibition description
The current exhibition When I Become You was hosted at the Daegu Museum, Korea, before arriving at MOCA, Taipei. Presented in the form of a dialogue, the show showcases the transformation from subject to object. In the process of “dialogue and transformation,” the artist revisits the duality of “East and West,” “Tradition and Modernity,” “Consciousness and Subconsciousness,” and hopes to explore and confirm how contemporary culture and historical traditions are not mutually exclusive but can in fact coexist. This show focuses on the transformation from subject and object, and also reflects upon tradition from a contemporary viewpoint while deriving new meanings from tradition.
「當我變成你」為李受俓今春在韓國大邱美術館，緊接著在台北當代藝術館舉行個展的主題；本展試圖透過一種對語式的手法，呈現由主體變成客體的轉換過程。在這「對話･衍化」的過程中，藝術家重新開啟了「東方與西方」、「傳統與現代」、「意識與潛意識」等二元對照的議題，但旨在探討和印證—當代文化現象對歷史傳統的映射，並非完全「相剋」而是可以「相生」的。本次展出，除了聚焦關注主客雙方的美學「轉移」，也進一步擴充到從當代回視傳統，自傳統中衍繹新意的幾個面向。
