Koh Myung Keun

This present publication features Koh Myung Keun's photographs and photo-sculptures inspired by the natural elements, old buildings and the human body. Okyoung Yoon, curator of Gana Art Center writes, 'Myung-keun Koh has explored the unique world of photography and plasticity to present three-dimensional photographic images[...] When he photographs the outer walls of old buildings, he keeps them in transparent films and turns them into box-shaped forms, the initial beauty captured in each transparent film is recreated again and again.' With artist statement and short texts by art critics, art historians and curators, some in Korean only. Artist's biography is provided.
