At the end of 2013, the Gyeonggi Museum of Modern Art presents Emerging of the Space, an exhibition featuring artists&rsquo diverse interpretations of space. People have a variety of feelings depending on the spaces they inhabit. They respond both rationally and emotionally to their spaces. Even small changes in the condition of a space can arouse a profound reaction. In this exhibition, we try to open a new chapter for viewers to see space from a different angle by uniquely changing the space familiar to us with the works pertaining to the artists&rsquo multifarious perceptions and interpretations.
While appreciating works on display, we come to realize our ways of arranging a storage closet, the structure of our houses, a road we walk along every day, and the composition of streets in a city are all the results of our efforts to trade on space humanly and aesthetically. It is hoped viewers can feel how diversely the spaces we have comprehended only through mathematical concepts, reduced to the Euclidian geometry of the vertical and horizontal, can be reborn through the artists&rsquo stellar imaginations. It is also expected a new experience with such spaces will arouse a slight change in your perceptions of your quotidian spaces.
