Marking the 300th anniversary of Kant's birth in 2024, this exhibition spotlights artists who, like Kant's disciplined, self-directed life, pursue art as a devotional practice. "Waterdrop painter" Kim Tschang-yeul (1929–2021) defined painting as "something else made by hand, something that moves another person... a kind of spiritual play, an act like meditation or prayer," describing his signature drops as "an act of dissolving all things into transparency and emptiness."
Korean contemporary artists build up, layer by layer, works of restraint and rigorous practice, like seekers on a path. Through their work, viewers are invited to empty out anger, anxiety, and fear, and experience ultimate peace.
