The 5th Docent School
Do Ho Suh: Speculations will be opening this August at Art Sonje Center. This large-scale solo exhibition features work by one of the most notable figures in Korean contemporary art. It highlights Do Ho Suh’s reconfiguration into the comprehensive concept of ‘Speculation,’ encompassing his two-decade-long exploration of themes such as Time, Memory, and Dreams.. Suh characterizes his creative pursuits as integral to the realm of Speculations, presenting a myriad of storytelling approaches that explore new possibilities stemming from his personal memories to those of the wider public.
Join us for the 5th Docent School, coinciding with the exhibition, Do Ho Suh: Speculations. This opportunity invites participants to immerse themselves in planning and organizing an enriching curriculum centered around the artworks showcased in the exhibition. This program will provide an opportunity to gain invaluable experience and further work as a docent at Art Sonje Center.
*Please note that this program will be only available in Korean.
