Artworks Combining Manufacturing and Printing Industries in Sewoon Sangga Area on Display at Eulji Budget Center Until Next Month 4

Seoul City Supports Artwork Production Through Resident Contest as Part of Sewoon District Urban Regeneration Project

[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Cheol-young] The Seoul Metropolitan Government announced on the 19th that it will hold the exhibition "Eul ? Story, Material, Experiment" at the Eulji Arts Center located in Sanlim-dong, Jung-gu, Seoul, from the 20th of this month to the 4th of next month.

Since 2016, Seoul has been continuously implementing the "Again Sewoon Project Resident Public Contest" as part of the urban regeneration project around the Sewoon Shopping Center area. This time, three artists who have been active based on the urban industry around the Sewoon Shopping Center promoted "Project Eul," which connects the urban manufacturing and printing industries in this area with art.

The lead artists of the three participating teams in this exhibition are artist So Dong-ho, who has developed various works based on industrial materials and techniques; artists Yoo Hye-in and Jo Ye-jin, who have recorded stories from various parts of Seoul through maps as a medium; and artist Yeo In-hyeok, who continues to create new media artworks by combining various media in the city.

A total of 13 creators from the three teams listened to and experienced the local manufacturing industry from August last year, and used materials and technologies used in the Sewoon Shopping Center area to realize their ideas into works. The works born through this process will be unveiled at this exhibition.

The "Eul ? Story, Material, Experiment" exhibition can be viewed at the Eulji Arts Center in Jung-gu, Seoul, from the 20th of this month to the 4th of next month (closed on Mondays) from 1 PM to 7 PM, and advance reservations can be made through the "Eulji Arts Center" page on Naver.

Kim Hyung-seok, Director of the Seoul Metropolitan Government's Historical Urban Regeneration Division, said, "This exhibition will be an opportunity to experience works that reinterpret the urban industry around the Sewoon Shopping Center as art," and added, "We hope this occasion will increase citizens' interest in the urban regeneration of the Sewoon Shopping Center area."
