They named the imaginary character, Annlee, and began to fill her life stories. For the next three years, about 20 artists participated in this project, giving birth to over 30 multimedia works in the form of paintings, sculptures, videos, posters, books, and music. These works came to be put together in the exhibition titled<em> No Ghost Just a Shell<\/em> in 2002. It is both a collection of individual works, and a multiauthor project around a single character. The title originated from <em>Ghost in the Shell<\/em>, the 1995 Japanese animation that raises a question as to whether there is human consciousness, soul, or ghost, in the cyborg, i.e., inside the shell of a cybernetic body.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-40560\" src=\"https:\/\/static-edge.kiaf.org\/web\/2024\/05\/03233719\/%EC%BA%A1%EC%B2%981-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"478\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>Fran\u00e7ois Curlet, Witness Screen, 2002, single-channel video, colour, sound, 5min.

Annlee was emancipated and sentenced to death at once, but <em>No Ghost Just a Shell<\/em> in its entirety became a collection of Van Abbemuseum in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. This acquisition was ground-breaking in terms of revisiting the relationships of ideas, mediums, forms and rights in art.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-40559\" src=\"https:\/\/static-edge.kiaf.org\/web\/2024\/05\/03233610\/%EC%BA%A1%EC%B2%983.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"390\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>Joe Scanlan, Do It Yourself Dead on Arrival (AnnLee), 2002, BILLY bookcase parts(IKEA), DIY manual, funeral bouquet, dimensions variable.

This exhibition at SeMA, organized with the collections of Van Abbemuseum, includes the works of 14 artists (teams), which will be an opportunity to engage with their questions again after over two decades, still very much relevant today. It will present interesting but critical perspectives on today\u2019s postdigital era where technological environments like generative artificial intelligence are significantly changing the ways art is produced, and are prompting digital images that exist as data to evolve on their own as subjects having emotions, personality, and identity.<\/p>\n<p>Buk-Seoul Museum of Art (1F)<br \/>\n1238, Dongil-ro, Nowon-gu, Seoul, republic of Korea<br \/>\n<span aria-label=\"Call phone number 02-2124-5201\">02-2124-5201<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sema.seoul.go.kr\/kr\/index\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WEB<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/instagram.com\/seoulmuseumofart\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">INSTAGRAM<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/facebook.com\/seoulmuseumofart\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FACEBOOK<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/youtube.com\/seoulmuseumofart\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YOUTUBE<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[50,52],"class_list":["post-40547","insights","type-insights","status-publish","hentry","category-insight","category-articles"],"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\/40547","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=40547"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40547"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
