Lee Bul Show @ Mori Art Museum

Posted on by

There is a slideshow of works from the Lee Bul exhibition available at the Mori Art Museum Flickr account. Worth a look, but you really need some background to properly appreciate these works. I used the audio guide while looking at the exhibition. It may help to reflect upon some of the themes which show up in the exhibition:

  • Recent history (post WWII) of the Korean peninsula/Cold War
  • Cyborgs/Genetic Modification/Body augmentation/Prosthetics
  • Evolution/Post-Humanism
  • Modernism/Futurism/Utopia/Totalitarianism
  • Urban Design/Architecture
  • Bruno Taut
  • Performance Art
  • Stinking Blinged Fish
  • Leonardo da Vinci
  • Personal Karaoke Pods

Best watch the slideshow in full screen mode.
