Back “Presenting the Possibility of Creating a Language for Future Society through the Convergence of Art and Science & Technology” Chungbuk National University (President Ko Chang-seop) hosted a special lecture on September 22 featuring renowned contemporary artist Shane Guffogg, titled From Einstein to AI: Art as a New Language , highlighting the potential of art to shape new modes of expression for future society. Organized by the university’s Artificial Intelligence Research Institute, the lecture took place in Room 105 of Building E9 and drew an audience of approximately 80 students and faculty members, underscoring strong interest in the convergence of art and science-based technologies. The event opened with welcoming remarks by Kim Bong-jae, Director of the AI Research Institute, followed by Guffogg’s lecture. In his talk, Guffogg focused on the intersections of AI, quantum technology, and art, presenting a range of examples to illustrate how art can generate new forms of social language. He emphasized that the layering of time, perception, and emotion can function as a new creative language within the convergence of art and advanced technologies, leaving a strong impression on attendees. A lively open discussion followed the lecture, during which participants exchanged ideas on how culture and technology, as well as art and science, can be harmoniously integrated. Many agreed that when future technologies such as AI and quantum computing meet artistic imagination, they have the potential to create new social values. Park Jungeun, Director of Gallery Chang, commented, “This lecture went beyond the appreciation of art and became a serious forum for reflecting on the fusion of art and technology. It offered Chungbuk National University students a meaningful opportunity to develop creative thinking within a global discourse.” Kim Bong-jae, Director of the AI Research Institute, noted, “Quantum computing should be regarded as a core technology shaping the future beyond computer science,” adding that its characteristic concept of ‘the superposition of time’ closely resonates with artistic imagination—an idea deeply connected to the themes Shane Guffogg has long explored through his art. The event ultimately demonstrated how integrative thinking that transcends the boundaries between art, science, and technology can play a crucial role in preparing for future society, reaffirming Chungbuk National University’s position as a platform for creative academic exchange. www.thecm.net "예술과 과학기술 융합 통한 미래 사회 언어 창출 가능성 제시" 충북대학교(총장 고창섭)가 22일 현대미술의 거장 셰인 구포그(Shane Guffogg)를 초청해 「From Einstein to AI: 예술이 만드는 새로운 언어」를 주제로 특별강연을 진행했다.이번 강연은 인공지능연구소의 주관으로 E9동 105호에서 진행됐으며, 강연장을 가득 메운 학생과 교수진 등 약 80여 명이 참여해 예술과 과학기술의 융합에 대한 높은 관심을 확인할 수 있었다.이 날 행사는 김봉재 인공지능연구소장의 환영 인사에 이어 셰인 구포그의 강연이 이어졌다.구포그는 이번 강연에서 AI, 양자기술, 예술의 접점에 주목하며 < >

Back ILLUMINATED REFLECTION: Jimi Gleason Gallery Chang in Midtown Manhattan presents Illuminated Reflection , a solo exhibition by Jimi Gleason, on view from April 3 through May 6. Gleason’s practice has long explored themes of light, reflection, and temporality. Jimi Gleason is a painter who reinterprets the aesthetics of the Light and Space Movement—which shaped the California art scene from the 1960s through the 1980s—through a painterly language. Moving beyond traditional abstraction, he employs silver nitrate, a material historically used in ancient mirror-making, allowing chemical reactions, oxidation processes, and the reflection of light to generate surfaces that continually change over time. Within these canvases—where minimalism intersects with Light and Space—viewers encounter a synesthetic experience in which light and time unfold simultaneously. Rather than offering a purely visual encounter, Gleason’s work invites a philosophical dialogue between being and perception, material and immaterial, chance and control. Born in Newport Beach, California, Jimi Gleason studied art at the University of California, Berkeley, and later studied printmaking at the San Francisco Art Institute. After working as a photography assistant in New York, he returned to California and worked in the studio of Ed Moses. This exhibition coincides with Gleason’s exhibition Vapor Wave at the William Turner Gallery in Santa Monica (April 5 – May 31). https://www.nyculturebeat.com/index.php?mid=Lounge2&document_srl=4147405 < >

Back Gallery Chang Presents Time-Shift Exhibition in an Abandoned Building Gallery Chang is presenting a time-shift curatorial exhibition titled CHASE Project: Phase Shift , using an abandoned building as its exhibition site. Originally conceived at the multidisciplinary cultural space “The Bank” in Middletown, Upstate New York, the project has been expanded and re-presented as a new version at Gallery Chang in Manhattan. Three artists—Shin Kiwoun, Kim Hong Bin, and Anon—are participating. The exhibition first presents works by Kim Hong Bin and Anon through August 5, followed by Shin Ki Woun’s solo presentation Illusion of Permanence through August 12. Shin also participated in the restoration project of Nam June Paik’s The More the Better at the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea. Video artist Shin Ki woun explores the meanings of “existence” and “non-existence” through images that inhabit a worldview of “generation” and “disappearance,” adopting and experimenting with technical methods that push beyond the boundaries of art. Gallery Chang explains that Shin revives images of memories that were once real but soon vanished—becoming ambiguous and lost—by using time-lapse filming to reconstruct them as psychological spaces within memory. Textile artist An On has developed her own visual language through flat works, reliefs, and installations using textiles as her primary medium. By tearing, layering, and stitching fabrics that she has printed herself, she creates surfaces that are both painterly and sculptural. Gallery Chang notes that An’s textile collages contain narratives of color and layers of sensation within meticulous structures. They visualize natural temporality, personal emotions, and fragments of memory through the materiality of fabric. Repeated cutting, reassembling, and sewing leave traces of contemplation, while restrained vertical and horizontal compositions maintain a steady rhythm, and colors evoke sensations of season, light, and emotion. Artist Kim Hong Bin, who works under the name “VANHADA,” expresses themes such as “the beauty one seeks” and “the challenge of something new.” According to Gallery Chang, Kim reflects the “anxiety of an unsettled life” in his works, exaggerating colors to express how he absorbs and even enjoys stimuli and stress from his environment. Working mainly with acrylic on flat surfaces, he uses paint like stickers and creates various forms by crumpling, tearing, and reconfiguring his materials. Curator Jinnie Kang commented, “This exhibition itself—the act of moving a project that began in Upstate New York into another urban space—is a ‘process of transition.’ It will be an opportunity to imagine together how space and art can meet.” Park Jong-won, Reporter www.koreadaily.com 갤러리 장, 폐건물 이용 시간차 작품전 | 미주중앙일보 ‘CHASE Project: Phase Shift’…신기운·김홍빈·안온 출품 은행으로 사용됐던 폐건물을 예술의 현장으로 옮겨 전시 < >

Back Artist Stephen Robert Johns Breaks the Boundary Between Architecture and Painting An exhibition by painter Stephen Robert Johns , who gained international attention after being invited to a special global project that engages in artistic “dialogue” with the late works of world-renowned architect Zaha Hadid, will be held throughout August at Gallery Chang in Gangnam, Seoul. Titled Stephen Robert Johns: Reading the Language of Nature Through Color and Curve , the exhibition presents Johns’s distinctive painterly practice at the intersection of architecture and painting. A leading figure in American hard-edge painting, Johns is set to participate this fall in Traveling with Zaha , an exhibition at the Afragola high-speed railway station in Naples, Italy. The exhibition is a curated project in which contemporary artists respond to Zaha Hadid’s organic curves and architectural philosophy. Johns will present works that sensorially connect to Hadid’s curved structures through what he calls “topographic painting”—abstracted aerial views of the land seen from above. For many years, Johns has traveled between California and Costa Rica, documenting patterns of mountain ranges, river systems, and farmland observed from airplanes. The organic terrains he captures bear a striking resemblance to Hadid’s architectural language of flow and curvature. This visual dialogue continues in Johns’s August solo exhibition at Gallery Chang in Gangnam. Three painting series connected to the Zaha Hadid project— Puntarenas , Mountains & Volcanos , and Piedadis Church —will be shown together, revealing a resonant interplay that moves fluidly across the boundaries of architecture and painting.

Back Kim In-ok’s New York Debut: ‘FAIRYTALE’ Kim In-ok’s New York Debut: ‘FAIRYTALE’ Gallery Chang is pleased to present Fairytale, the debut solo exhibition of Korean artist Kim In Ok in New York City. Kim In Ok, a female artist from Korea, has been actively creating works using traditional oriental painting techniques, specifically the use of powdered pigments and mineral pigments. Her unique soft and soothing painting has recently led her to explore various new approaches in her work. This exhibition features many of her representative pieces, including the well-known series The Way Back to Hometown and Waiting. Additionally, it will include new works that have not been previously shown, drawing significant attention. Kim In Ok is a recognized painter who has received acclaim through numerous solo and group exhibitions. Her work is known for its lyrical quality and the delightful contrast of vivid colors. Although the materials and techniques she uses follow traditional Oriental painting methods, her work also shows notable Western influences in its formal aspects. Her paintings often incorporate elements of minimalism and surrealism, such as trees that float away like cotton candy or broccoli transforming into trees, showcasing a blend and transition of styles. The artist skillfully navigates the boundaries between figurative and abstract art, as well as realism and surrealism. Her labor-intensive process involve repeatedly applying and drying layers of powdered and mineral pigments, resulting in works that are even more beautiful and naturally colored when viewed in person. Using the metaphor of tree standing tall amidst a storm, the artist conveys her philosophy:”Everyone hopes for happiness, not misfortune. While we cannot turn back time, we can look forward to future dreams.” Through her work, she aims to offer comfort and hope to viewers. In a reality filled with carious challenges, Kim In Ok invites us into a pure and warm world of fairy tales and imagination. 김인옥 뉴욕 데뷔전 ‘FAIRYTALE’ @갤러리장(8/20-25) 김인옥(Kim In Ok) 작가가 8월 20일부터 25일까지 맨해튼 갤러리장(Gallery Chang)에서 뉴욕 데뷔전 ‘FAIRYTALE”을 열었다. 김인옥 작가는 고향에 대한 그리움과 보편적인 정서를 독특한 시각적 언어와 감성적인 스타일로 묘사한다. 한국의 전통적 정서와 현대적 감각을 조화롭게 표현해 동서양의 경계를 넘어 섬세한 감성과 서정성을 전달하는 작가다. 갤러리장 장준환 대표는 “김인옥 작가의 작품은 감정선의 교류를 통해 예술의 진정한 가치를 보여주었다. 동서양을 아우르는 그의 예술적 표현은 우리 모두가 공감할 수 있는 보편적인 정서를 담고 있으며, 이를 통해 관람객들은 새로운 예술적 경험을 하게 되었다”고 밝혔다. 김인옥 작가는 홍익대학교에서 동양학을 전공한 후 동대학원 동양학과를 졸업했다. 고려대, 강릉대, 홍익대 등에서 강사로 가르치다가 전업작가가 됐다. 홍익대 선배인 벽돌화가 기강용 작가의 부인이다.

Back Two Masters Meet at Gallery Chang Seoul: A Dual Exhibition by Kim Kang Yong and Shane Guffogg Gallery Chang will present a two-person exhibition featuring two leading figures of Korean and American contemporary art—Kim Kang Yong and Shane Guffogg—this coming October at Gallery Chang Seoul, located inside the Oakwood Premier COEX Center. Titled Infinite Dialogue , the exhibition unfolds as a stage for a philosophical exchange in which two masters from East and West pose questions and offer responses in their own distinct visual languages. Over the past five decades, Kim Kang Yong has explored the essence of existence and perception through the everyday motif of the “brick.” His canvases, built up with layers of sand and shadow, are not simply depictions of objects but are widely regarded as philosophical spaces that question the very act of seeing. Shane Guffogg, meanwhile, has constructed a body of work that moves fluidly across the boundaries of light and time, science and art, grounded in the fundamental question: How can time and space be compressed into a single moment? Last year, in conjunction with the 60th Venice Biennale’s official theme, Stranieri Ovunque – Foreigners Everywhere , Guffogg held a solo exhibition at the Scala Contarini del Bovolo Museum in Venice titled At the Still Point of the Turning World – Strangers of Time . Through the concept of “strange time,” he wove the Biennale’s central inquiry into his work, drawing widespread international attention and coverage from major outlets including the BBC. This Seoul exhibition brings Guffogg’s globally recognized projects into dialogue with Kim Kang Yong’s long-standing investigations, collectively posing the question, What does it mean to see? The conversation between the two masters, initiated in Seoul, is set to continue in a New York exhibition in 2026, further expanding an artistic discourse that bridges Korea and the United States. Chang Junhwan, CEO of Gallery Chang, commented, “We have continued a two-way exchange by introducing Korean artists in New York and global masters in Korea. This exhibition is a concentrated expression of that identity and will serve as an important opportunity to demonstrate the stature of Korean art on the world stage.” www.mk.co.kr 서울 갤러리장에서 만나는 두 거장, 김강용·구포그 2인전 - 매일경제 갤러리 장(Gallery Chang)이 오는 10월 오크우드 프리미어 코엑스 센터 내 ‘갤러리 장–서울’에서 한국과 미국의 미술계 거장 김강용·셰인 구포그(Shane Guffogg) 2인전을 개최한다. ‘무한의 대화’라는 타이틀이 붙은 이번 전시는 동서양 두 거장이 각자의 언어로 질문과 응답을 주고받는 ‘철학적 대화’의 장으로 펼쳐진다. 김강용 작가는 지난 < >

Back REALITY + IMAGE: Revisiting the Works of the 2010s Gallery Chang in Midtown Manhattan (Gallery Chang, NYC) presents the solo exhibition REALITY + IMAGE: Revisiting the Works of the 2010s by hyperrealist painter Kim Kang Yong, on view from September 30 to October 22. This exhibition introduces the works Kim Kang Yong most rigorously experimented with and developed during his stay in New York in the 2010s, when he redefined the possibilities of painting through his unique visual language known as “sand painting.” In particular, the paintings that explore the ambiguous gap between materiality and image continue to feel vivid and sensorial even in today’s New York. Using sand as if it were a brush, this artist, both unfamiliar and profound in vision, has drawn an independent trajectory within Korean contemporary art. From a distance, his works resemble photographs; up close, the surface grains begin to speak. Within them are bricks and sand—scenes where temporality and narrative, Korean material sensibility and international formal language, merge on a single plane. The tension in Kim’s paintings arises precisely at that boundary. His work has been described not merely as material experimentation, but as “visual thinking” that challenges the grammar of art history. Born in Jeongeup, North Jeolla Province in 1950, Kim Kang Yong studied Western painting at Hongik University in the 1970s under the master of Dansaekhwa, Park Seo-bo (1931–2023). After earning his MFA from Hongik University Graduate School, he served as a professor there. In 2004, he left academia and worked as a full-time artist in New York for ten years. He has held solo exhibitions at venues including Park Ryu Sook Gallery, Gana Art Center, Seoul Arts Center, Sungkok Art Museum, and the National Art Museum of China in Beijing. His works are in the collections of the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea; Seoul Museum of Art; Sungkok Art Museum; Hongik University Museum of Art; Park Soo Keun Museum; the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade of Korea; Incheon District Prosecutors’ Office; and the Frederick R. Weisman Art Foundation (LA), among others. This exhibition marks the fifth collaboration between Gallery Chang and Kim Kang Yong. Curator Jinnie Kang commented, “I believe the works from this period represent the artistic peak of Kim Kang Yong. Presenting them again in New York today feels not like a simple retrospective, but like a response that reactivates the accumulated time and energy within them. I hope this exhibition becomes a point of reconnection between Korean visual language and the world. I am delighted to introduce the trajectory of Kim Kang Yong to more audiences in New York.” https://www.nyculturebeat.com/index.php?mid=Art2&document_srl=4165362 < >
