Kwang Young Chun is a Korean artist best known for his acclaimed Aggregation series, which features wall-embracing three-dimensional sculptures of triangular forms wrapped in traditional Korean mulberry paper, hanji. The small, individual triangles are grouped together and arranged by the artist to form harmonious works of art. Inspired by childhood memories, the artist continues to use consistent materials and techniques to preserve his cultural heritage.
Kwang Young Chun: Aggregation will be displayed at The Korea Society gallery from October 12 to November 20.
Chun’s solo exhibition will also be showcased at the Brooklyn Museum from November 16 to July 2019.
This exhibition is curated by Sunny Shin.
