Suh Yongsun's solo exhibition 'New Works' at ONE AND J. Gallery showcases his vibrant depictions of urban life in cities like Seoul, New York, Beijing, and Paris from 2007 to 2024.
Using bold brushstrokes and vibrant colors, Suh captures the dynamic energy and emotions of city living.
Since the 1980s, Suh has illustrated Seoul's transformation from a monochrome city to a colorful metropolis, reflecting social changes and personal experiences.
Inspired by his travels, especially in Manhattan, Suh's recent works delve into the complexities of urban life, portraying the daily struggles and emotions of city dwellers.
Suh's latest pieces, like the "N Line" and "14th St. Station" series, capture the bustling life of New York's subway system.
'New Works' invites viewers to experience the vibrancy and diversity of urban life through Suh's unique artistic perspective, solidifying his reputation in contemporary art.
The exhibition runs from May 12th to June 23rd, 2024, at ONE AND J. Gallery in Seoul.
