Contemporary artist Ahn Kyuchul’s solo exhibition Ahn Kyuchul: Questions — Landscape without Horizon is currently on view at Space ISU in Seoul. The exhibition presents a diverse group of works in various media, including installation, sculpture, painting, and text, that explores fixed ideas and conventions that have persisted in our society today. For the past four decades, the artist has been raising questions about life and the world that surrounds us, taking his detailed observations of everyday life and objects as a point of departure. The exhibition introduces eight new works that reflect these questions he has been pursuing concerning visual art.

The exhibition invites viewers to step into a “landscape without horizon,” encouraging them to consider their own answers to the questions that the artist poses. New works featured in the show include Spiral Wall, which draws viewers in like a black hole, yet its endless rotation prevents them from reaching its center; Dot Practices, which showcases the artist’s intense effort to emulate a minimalist masterpiece with a single dot; Line Practices, that captures the artist’s experimentations to find various ways to draw lines without a ruler; On the Way to Art, that serves as a signpost for seekers of true art; Tilted Seascapes, which suggests a way to adjust three tilted sea painting, and Seven Boxes, in which each box holds the key to another box that doesn't fit, and the whole cannot be understood without opening them all. These works reconstruct the landscape of our time in which the “horizon” has been lost. The exhibition is on view until January 3, 2025.
