Mega Seoul 4 Decades
Artist(s): GROUP SHOW
Date: 8 Sep - 17 Nov 2012

Mega Seoul 4 decades presents the photographs of capital Seoul for 4 decades(the late 1960s~the early 2010s) through perspectives of 13 Korean photographers. The group encompasses elder, middle and rising photographers who are still active in the firm of Korean contemporary photography with different ages and backgrounds. They have captured the Seoul city in repeated vortex of collision and construction. The huge city, where different trends co-exist, is exposed by each generation's distinctive perspective. It is from the late 60s, when everything headed to Seoul while people were singing the "Hymn of Seoul" until the present, when the city blew up to a global mega city. Although the photographers gave themselves into numerous changes and dissonances of the city, they show arduous photographic progress to reveal the inside facts and the hidden side of "Hymn of Seoul" responding with sharp and ironic perspective or remain aloof to the contradictory city.
