Produktinformationen zu „Meekyoung Shin “
In this new monograph on the artist, Jonathan Watkins sets the scene for Shin s solo exhibition at the Korean Cultural Centre UK in London in late autumn 2013, a stone s throw from Nelson s Column and the Fourth Plinth commission of Trafalgar Square. Context is essential to Shin s practice, and indeed, to her identity. As she asserts: I often identify myself as someone on the border between cultures . Watkins eloquently introduces Shin s major bodies of work whilst capturing the cultural complexity, exquisite craftsmanship, conceptual elegance and natural wit embodied within them. An essay by Ben Tufnell explores the cultural and historical references in Shin s work over the past fifteen years. Taking Shin s solo exhibition at Haunch of Venison in London in 2011 as his point of departure, he opens up questions of anthropology and museology, of what is exhibited where and when, by and for whom. His incisive analysis of Crouching Aphrodite (2002) a life-size sculpture of the artist s own body in the pose of the classical Venus of Vienne from the Louvre raises issues of Eastern and Western culture, of originality and copying: Being neither fully Asian nor fully Roman it inhabits a cultural limbo space.
