As the first stage of our project, we narrowed our focus to category 2—Korean-born individuals currently studying in Germany. A total of six Korean artists, including the three members of the Media Narrative Explorers project team, come together for this exhibition. Although they share a common background shaped by Korean media culture, each artist has developed a unique perspective on and relationship with media. Their worlds of media intersect, yet diverge in meaningful ways.
This exhibition explores how Korea’s strong narrative-driven media environment is reflected in each artist’s work, and how their individual subjectivities are entangled within shared cultural and historical contexts. . This exhibition will also aims to provide an international perspective on the experiences of foreigners living in Germany.
The venue, IG Fortuna, is a space with a history as a Kino (cinema), making it a fitting site for connecting these themes. The exhibition will take an immersive and interactive approach, incorporating various media such as two-dimensional works, installations, and video.
As the space has not yet been fully renovated, it will not serve as a traditional white cube. Instead, the exhibition embraces the raw character of the venue, intentionally blocking external light to create a setting in which each artist’s narrative can be experienced and explored. In this environment, each work will both rely on and merge with the light of the video projections, forming a cohesive and interconnected narrative.
!! Please look forward to the exhibition archiving that will be shared soon !!
