August 31 - October 27, 2024

AVP Lab is collaborating with Waley Art (ACC 2021) in Taipei to present the exhibition Go Without Transfer. From August 31 to October 27 seven Korean artists will show the works related to cities.

As a meeting point for the city and the individual, history continues to provide artists with a subject they must untangle. Making a city today is different from plans to repair ruins. Under a system of collective control in the modern and contemporary history of the Republic of Korea, which remains both a divided state and a military state, several cities are locations in which a collective agenda lies scattered in a continuing political situation. At this point, the city is itself a subject and a setting in which memories of war and division collide alongside personal and collective narratives. Cities both remain administrative districts and exist alongside us as concrete places.

This exhibition seeks to explore aspects of how Korean artists today pay attention to the concept of the city. It examines cities as they appear in the foreground of the online and offline worlds, methodologies of building narratives, and the performative aspect of personally walking into cities.
