“I want to show that all artistic expressions do not start from
something new, but can change within history and tradition.”
From artist Seung-chul Lee's artist's notes...
“모든 미술 표현이 새로운 어떤 것에서 출발 하는 것이 아니라,
역사와 전통 안에서 새로이 변모할 수 있다는 것을 보여주고자 한다.”
이승철 작가의 작가 노트 중에서...

Very interesting exhibition. The idea of past and present in relation to the human history, religion, subjects, colors, space and materials is quite unique and impressive. Great work! Inspiring! Thank you.
