72 OLED Screens Fill MMCA Seoul's Seoul Box in Christine Sun Kim's New Work, Until Nov. 29
Why NOW picked itA good stop on a walk around Bukchon and Samcheong-dong. It stays open until 21:00 on Wednesdays and Saturdays and ends Nov. 29.
A curved screen made of 72 55-inch LG OLED panels rises in the middle of the 16.6 m-high Seoul Box. Christine Sun Kim's new work "Have Many Dumb Fights Against Rock" is at MMCA Seoul until Nov. 29, and the museum stays open until 21:00 on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
An 8 m screen over your head
Newsis puts the central curved screen at 8.1 m high and 5.4 m wide, and calls it the largest OLED installation at a Korean museum.
The artist said she had the screen cover the space overhead so visitors feel the weight of history and responsibility that the rock stands for.
Sign language drawn like comic motion lines
The artist is Berlin-based, Korean-American and Deaf. She turned the movement of sign language and the motion lines of classic comics into drawings, then into animation.
Black lines run off the screen across the walls, floor and glass, and the sentences and signing on screen move along them.
Wednesdays and Saturdays until 21:00
The Ministry of Culture listing gives 10:00 to 18:00 on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday and 10:00 to 21:00 on Wednesday and Saturday. This week the late nights are Wednesday, Oct. 28 and Saturday, Oct. 31.
Newsis reported viewing is free, but the ministry listing shows the fee as undecided, so it is worth calling MMCA (02-3701-9500) first. The address is 30 Samcheong-ro, Jongno-gu.
