Girl's act
€115.00
This is the catalogue of Oh Hein-Kuhn's solo exhibition Girl's Act, featuring his photographs of school girls. Art critic Young June Lee wrote, 'Instead of unveiling the hidden aspect of the person, Hein-Kuhn Oh is more interested in photographically analyzing the strategy of vision that forms the identity of the person. Rather than sympathizing with the person in the photograph, Oh treats her as something like a signboard or a facade.' With artist biography.
This book serves as the official catalogue for Hein-Kuhn Oh's solo exhibition titled 'Girl's Act,' which was first published in 2004 to coincide with his presentation at the Ilmin Museum of Art. The publication features a series of black and white photographs documenting high school girls in Korea, specifically exploring the social facade these girls present and their desire to merge into entertainment media. Rather than seeking to unveil hidden personal aspects, Oh's work is described by art critic Young June Lee as an analysis of the strategy of vision that forms individual identity. The book provides a comprehensive visual record of this artistic exploration into Korean youth culture and the photographic gaze.
