Won Beom-sik Solo Exhibition 'Archisculpture Collage'
Jun 12, 2014 – Jun 30, 2014 · SOOHOH GALLERY

René Descartes claimed that the design of architecture built by one master is more beautiful than that of buildings by many architects. The Archisculpture Project instead makes a gigantic architectural sculpture from the various features of buildings by many different architects — a collage of a "Phantasmagoria" discovered through a flâneur's view of the metropolis. Within this project, a variety of architectural elements are reborn as a gigantic and historic new sculpture, connecting the meanings of architecture while dismantling the cityscape rather than merely producing an aesthetically pleasing artwork.
