Echoes of My Dear Friend: A Robot's Lament Anikoon Dec 1 - Dec 31, 2022 Echoes of My Dear Friend: A Robot's Lament Anikoon’s upcoming public art project, "Echoes of My Dear Friend: A Robot's Lament," is a poignant exploration of nostalgia and solitude through the lens of retro robotics. This exhibition, set in the former CHASE Bank building in Middletown, New York, takes a heartfelt look at the connections between past and present, and between the mechanical and the emotional. Known for his unique approach to integrating vintage toy robots into his art, Anikoon projects the modern human experience onto these nostalgic figures. With imagery inspired by classic wind-up tin robots and iconic Star Wars characters, his work blends retro aesthetics with a contemporary critique of isolation and estrangement. The playful and vibrant surface of his creations often hides deeper themes of loneliness and melancholy, as reflected in the expressive, whimsical faces of his robotic subjects. "Echoes of My Dear Friend: A Robot's Lament" employs a dynamic range of techniques, including graffiti-inspired spray paint and a playful use of comic book elements and halftone dots. These methods contribute to the pop-art vibrancy of his work while maintaining a modern, flattened aesthetic. Through the combination of restrained composition and vivid colors, Anikoon emphasizes the flatness of the canvas, drawing attention to the work’s painterly qualities while evoking a sense of visual and emotional depth. The exhibition's title, "Echoes of My Dear Friend," reflects the artist's nostalgic and somewhat melancholic journey as he searches for a lost connection. The narrative revolves around a robot—a symbol of Anikoon’s own childhood imagination—who laments the absence of a once-familiar ATM, now gone from its old place in the former bank. The robot’s quest to reconnect with this absent friend mirrors the universal human experience of longing for the past and grappling with the passage of time. Anikoon's art is not just a homage to the past but a commentary on the fleeting nature of relationships and memories. As he prepares for his upcoming participation in the Moment Art Project in New York this May, this December exhibition serves as a tender reminder of the importance of cherishing precious memories and meaningful connections, even as we navigate the fast-paced demands of modern life. Through "Echoes of My Dear Friend: A Robot's Lament," Anikoon offers viewers a reflective space to consider their own experiences of connection and loss, and to appreciate the warmth and significance of the relationships that shape our lives. This exhibition invites us to pause and remember, to celebrate the simple joys and enduring friendships that continue to echo through our lives, even as time and change transform the world around us.

Ambitious Dreams: A Collaboration of Art and Literature Koo Na Hyun May 23 - Jun 31, 2019 Ambitious Dream: A Collaboration of Art and Literature "Ambitious Dream" is a groundbreaking collaboration between renowned artist Koo Na Hyun and bestselling author JunHwan Chang. This unique exhibition brings to life the intense narratives from Chang's recent book, "변호사들 - 그들의 치열한 법정에서 한국 민주주의가 시작되었다" (Lawyers - The Birth of Korean Democracy in Their Fierce Courtrooms). The book is divided into three parts, highlighting the stories of eleven human rights lawyers who played pivotal roles in shaping Korean democracy: during the Japanese colonial period, the post-liberation and Yushin dictatorship era, and the New Military Regime. Koo Na Hyun, celebrated for her distinctive series of portrait artworks, goes beyond expressive hyperrealism by embedding intricate stories within the faces she paints. In "Ambitious Dream," she transforms the powerful stories of these eleven courageous lawyers into her trademark style, offering a compelling visual homage. Her portraits not only capture the fierce determination and resilience of these figures but also weave their historical and personal narratives into the very fabric of the artwork. This approach aims to instill a deeper historical consciousness and appreciation among younger generations, bridging the past and present through reflective and evocative art. This collaborative exhibition, hosted in New York, serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made in the pursuit of freedom and democracy. "Ambitious Dream" is more than an artistic display; it is a celebration of courage, a tribute to the heroes of Korean democracy, and an invitation to viewers to engage with history through the powerful interplay of art and literature. By merging JunHwan Chang's evocative storytelling with Koo Na Hyun's narrative-infused portraits, the exhibition offers a profound and immersive experience, honoring the legacy of these extraordinary lawyers and their enduring impact on society.

Show Me Your Heart X Kim Young Mi: Annual Gala 2022 KIM YOUNG ME Dec 11, 2022, 11:30 AM-3:00 PM Show Me Your Heart X Kim Young Mi: Annual Gala 2022 Kim Young Mi’s solo exhibition, "Dances of Resistance," continues to evolve with a special feature at the upcoming "Show Me Your Heart" Gala this December 2022. This annual event, organized by the nonprofit organization of the same name, serves as a poignant platform for blending art with philanthropy, and Kim Young Mi's participation highlights her ongoing exploration of human vulnerability and societal introspection. Kim Young Mi’s work is renowned for its intricate deconstruction of the human form and anthropomorphized animals, creating a dialogue that bridges fragmented existence with deeper reflections on societal disillusionment. Her art, celebrated across South Korea, the UK, Europe, China, and the United States, delves into the complexities of human experience, using both distortion and empathy to engage viewers in a profound conversation about the human condition. At the "Show Me Your Heart" Gala, Kim will contribute a live drawing performance, offering a unique and intimate glimpse into her creative process. This live artwork will feature a family of owls, rendered with the same emotional depth and complexity that characterize her broader oeuvre. Through the depiction of these avian figures, Kim seeks to capture the warmth and mutual support inherent in familial relationships—a poignant counterpoint to the existential themes explored in her broader body of work. The live drawing will not only provide a dynamic addition to the gala but also serve as a visual representation of the event’s spirit, celebrating connection and solidarity during the festive season. Kim’s artwork will be part of a live auction, offering attendees a chance to acquire a piece that symbolizes the warmth and interdependence of family bonds, while also supporting the noble cause championed by the "Show Me Your Heart" organization. This event will underscore Kim Young Mi’s commitment to merging artistic exploration with social impact. As her work continues to challenge and inspire, this event exemplifies how art can serve as a powerful medium for fostering community, empathy, and reflection. The gala will provide a meaningful context for Kim’s latest creation, celebrating both the transformative power of art and the enduring importance of human connection. This December, join us in experiencing Kim Young Mi’s compelling live drawing and support the "Show Me Your Heart" Gala, where art meets philanthropy in a celebration of shared humanity and the spirit of giving.
