Using ready-made products or existing images have been developing from Dadaism, Neo-dadaism and Simulationism to present as an important method or idea in art. These four artists extend such history but develop own ways.
In this exhibition, four artists do not use innovative technique but they are pioneering. In the contemporary society, when disorderedly shared images according to the development of media and network, the exhibition suggests new possibility and its result from an appropriate approach.
