Platform Seoul 2007: Tomorrow
Perception of time is in a perpetual state of flux. Being that our modern-day world moves at faster pace than ever before, we tend to focus on the “present,” in the midst of this chaotic swirl. However, what is most important at this moment is the prospect of the “future.” Tomorrow aims to provide an opportunity to view the future with a profound hope and vision. Through an array of activities organized by the community, we will offer a vision of a brighter future. “Tomorrow” takes a look at what lies ahead with its infinite possibilities by means of seeking an ideal fiction and looking inside the power that forms our future.
With participation of 32 international artists to share a vision for the future, Tomorrow, a new project organized by SAMUSO is co-curated by Sunjung Kim, David A. Ross, with advising curator Dan Cameron. Diverse fields of contemporary art including painting, installation, photography, media art, performance will be presented in Kumho Museum of Art and Art Sonje Center. There will also be a month long program of video screening programs and artist talks as well as a symposium hosted by the Korean National University of Art.
