The landscapes he has painted are isolated layer after layer in multiple frames. What painting provided us was the visual illusion transcending the flat physical space. The rectangular frame we commonly think of when we hear the word painting is a certain conceptual frame, serving as a background for such representation. The space in that frame is treated differently from the physical space we exist in.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-39990\" src=\"https:\/\/static-edge.kiaf.org\/web\/2024\/03\/20224738\/03-%EC%9C%A0%EC%84%A0%ED%83%9C-%EC%98%88%EC%88%A0%EA%B3%BC-%EC%98%88%EC%88%A0-%EC%82%AC%EC%9D%B4-%EC%98%A4%EB%B8%8C%EC%A0%9C%EC%97%90-%EC%95%84%ED%81%AC%EB%A6%B4-66.5x33.5x2.5-cm-2024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>\uc720\uc120\ud0dc, \uc608\uc220\uacfc \uc608\uc220 \uc0ac\uc774, \uc624\ube0c\uc81c\uc5d0 \uc544\ud06c\ub9b4, 66.5&#215;33.5&#215;2.5cm, 2024<\/em><\/p>\n<p>For a long time, some of the high praise for art in the West has referred to \u201cart competing with nature,\u201d or \u201cart that has reached the realm of nature.\u201d But in order to mimic nature, art has had to lie \u2014pretending to be natural while being artificial, pretending not to be a painting while being a painting. This is a sort of trick. In 17th-century still life painting made in the Netherlands, the chessboard is an allegorical object suggesting that accident or trickery will intervene in life. The floor as part of the interior in Yoo\u2019s paintings also consists of a chess board, with intersecting squares of black and white. The hero standing on it\u2014the artist on his bike\u2014plays the game, as he enjoys the trick called art and the contingencies intervening in life.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-39991\" src=\"https:\/\/static-edge.kiaf.org\/web\/2024\/03\/20224759\/04-%EC%9C%A0%EC%84%A0%ED%83%9C-%EA%BF%88%EA%BE%B8%EB%8A%94-%EC%A0%84%ED%99%94%EA%B8%B0-%EC%98%A4%EB%B8%8C%EC%A0%9C%EC%97%90-%EC%95%84%ED%81%AC%EB%A6%B4-30.5%EB%84%88%EB%B9%84x87%EB%86%92%EC%9D%B4cm-2024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>\uc720\uc120\ud0dc, \uafc8\uafb8\ub294 \uc804\ud654\uae30, \uc624\ube0c\uc81c\uc5d0 \uc544\ud06c\ub9b4, 30.5x87cm, 2024<\/em><\/p>\n<p>In the paintings of Yoo, however, the observer and ego\u2014the artist\u2014is present. He looks like a time traveler on a bicycle, journeying in a space where objects of the memory float around. His presence,in a stationary position, tells us the present. And the moment he steps on the bicycle pedals, a new space and future will unfold before him.<\/p>\n<p>Duru artspace<br \/>\n5, Jahamun-ro 45-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul, South Korea<br \/>\n02 720 0345<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.duruartspace.co.kr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WEB<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/duru_artspace\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">INSTAGRAM<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[50,51],"class_list":["post-39987","insights","type-insights","status-publish","hentry","category-insight","category-stories"],"translation":{"provider":"WPGlobus","version":"3.0.0","language":"en","enabled_languages":["ko","en"],"languages":{"ko":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false},"en":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false}}},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/insights\/39987","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/insights"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/insights"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39987"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=39987"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
