Kim Hak-gyun Solo Exhibition 'Super, Baby, Forever' Opens | ARTTOKEN

Artist Active in New York... October 27 - November 3 at Space 2R2, Samseong-dong, Seoul

[Daehan Economic Daily = Seo Tae-won Reporter] The solo exhibition 'Super, Baby, Forever' by artist Kim Hak-gyun (photo), who is active primarily in New York, is bringing a fresh wave to the art world as autumn arrives.

The Korea Institute of Industrial Culture Promotion announced on the 23rd that Kim's solo exhibition will be held at Space 2R2 in Samseong-dong, Seoul, from the 27th to November 3rd.

Through the character 'Super Baby' presented in this exhibition, artist Kim Hak-gyun plans to convey 'the revival of humanity' with his characteristic humor.

The artist expressed the journey of humanity—the fragile human form before 'God' that he felt after the pandemic, yet finding hope, being reborn, and moving toward infinity—through original paintings, sculptures, and 3D digital works.

Starting with this solo exhibition, artist Kim Hak-gyun plans to collaborate with ARTTOKEN NFT STUDIO to newly plan his existing physical works as NFT ART.

It is expected that when the works are reborn as NFT ART, artist Kim Hak-gyun's activities and worldview, which were previously viewable only by a limited number of people regionally, will be promoted globally.

The exhibition, held at Space 2R2 in Samseong-dong (630 Bongeunsa-ro, Gangnam-gu, 2F), is expected to see the large attendance of famous artists, including Lee Sin-an, Chairman of the Korea Institute of Industrial Culture Promotion; Han Ho, artist from Han Ho Art Center, a master of media art; a legendary middle-aged painter active not only in Korea but also in France; sculptor Lee Bong-sik; and Park So-pi, Director of Gallery UHM.
