The Korean Cultural Center in Italy has successfully concluded its two-month exhibition titled 'Aqua Paradise,' which ran from October 8 to November 28 in Rome. The exhibition showcased the works of three prominent Korean contemporary artists who explored the multifaceted nature of water through various artistic lenses.
The exhibition was originally conceived and developed by the National Asian Culture Center (ACC) in 2022 as part of their ongoing cultural outreach initiatives. The traveling exhibition was designed to bring Korean contemporary art to international audiences and foster cross-cultural understanding through artistic expression.
'Aqua Paradise' featured the works of three distinguished Korean artists: Kwon Hyewon, Boo Jihyun, and Jung Eunhae (who works under the artistic name Eco Orot). Each artist brought their unique perspective to the central theme of water, examining this fundamental element from aesthetic, philosophical, and ecological viewpoints. Their diverse approaches provided visitors with a comprehensive exploration of how water influences art, nature, and human consciousness.
The exhibition offered Italian audiences an opportunity to experience contemporary Korean art that addresses universal themes through culturally specific artistic practices. The artists' works demonstrated how environmental concerns and philosophical reflections on nature transcend cultural boundaries while maintaining distinctive Korean artistic sensibilities.
The Korean Cultural Center in Italy expressed great satisfaction with the exhibition's reception over the two-month period. Center officials noted their enthusiasm for participating in this traveling exhibition format, which allows Korean cultural institutions to share contemporary art with broader international audiences. The center extended special gratitude to all visitors who attended the exhibition, acknowledging that their engagement and interest contributed significantly to the event's success and made the experience even more meaningful for both the artists and the cultural center.
