Opening Reception: Thursday, July 7th, 2016, 6-8 PM
DOOSAN Gallery New York is pleased to announce the group exhibition of three New York based artists Junsung Kim, Aatchim and Cheon Pyo Lee, from July 7th through August 25th.
The title of the exhibition Contemplation is based on Franz Kafka’s collection of short stories, where each short story comes together to form one totality. As such, while each of the three artists seeks completion in their work, the content of their work has an ‘incomplete’ character or nature about them, and it is through the grouping of the works and their relationship to each other that we hope to achieve and realize something whole.
Junsung Kim (b. 1987) received his B.F.A. in Fine Arts from School of Visual Arts and is currently enrolled in both M.F.A. Visual Arts from Columbia University and M.F.A. from Bard College. He participated in a group exhibition at Essex Flowers (2014, New York, NY, U.S.A.).
Aatchim (b. 1989) received her B.F.A. in Studio Art from New York University and is currently enrolled in M.F.A. Visual Arts from Columbia University. She has held a solo exhibition at 80WSE (2014, New York, NY, U.S.A.) and group exhibition at the Jewish Museum (2016, New York, NY, U.S.A.) among many others.
Cheon Pyo Lee (b. 1980) received his B.F.A. in Painting from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and M.F.A. in Painting from Yale University. He has held solo exhibitions at Corner Art Space (2013, Seoul, Korea), Interstate Projects (2012, Brooklyn, NY, U.S.A.) and White Flag (2011, Brooklyn, NY, U.S.A.).
