The exhibition ‘Phantom City’, which focuses on the light and colour of modern cities, is open from Apr. 3 to July 21at Sehwa Museum of Art. The exhibition will be the second urban-themed exhibition following ‘Wonder City’ in 2018 at Sehwa Museum of Art, featuring 49 paintings, sculptures, and videos of nine contemporary artists who view the city as a vast mass of visual delusion. Entering the exhibition hall, you will see a series of landscape paintings of vibrant colour and patterning. Choi Eunjung combines natural elements with buildings, bridges, and urban structures to create chaotic and ambiguous scenes that express the artist’s dream of heteroecotopia. Hye Ja distorted the momentary scene of a crowded place such as a train station, an art gallery, and a park, which depicts the…

‘A building only expresses a thought, not the ego of the architect.’As he said, Choi Moongyu (professor, Yonsei University) has been practicing an architecture that conveys his own thoughts over the past 20 years, rather than pursuing a distinct style through the invention of an architectural language or the persistent use of certain materials. He sought to address simple but radical questions while exploring the circumstances of architecture and scrutinising specific programmes, and his architecture delivers and sometimes embodies the narratives of unexpected values and potential. In this Frame, SPACE would like to highlight the campus architecture that he designed by contemplating questions: ‘what kind of place is a university?’, which evolved, as he practiced, into ‘what role should a university play in the community?’…

Manhattan’s Urban Grid System The urban planning of Manhattan, in New York City, was established under the ‘Commissioner’s Plan of 1811’ in 1811. Now more than 200 years have passed, but this plan is still in effect and continues to fulfill its purpose by maintaining most of the original urban grid blocks and designated building types in each district. The building lot of the 57E130 NY Condominium is located in East Harlem, a residential district developed in the northeast of Manhattan under the 1811 plan. It’s one of twenty lots created by subdividing one of the two thousand urban blocks. Buildings in one block stand side by side, and only leave a seismic gap of 1in (2.54cm) between them. According to the city’s building regulations, every façade must align with…

An Introduction to Public Architecture With the Hansook Cheong Memorial as the starting point, now 20 years ago, I have designed various buildings – in Paju Book City and Heryi in the early 2000s, and the Ssamziegil in 2004 – that have mostly been commissioned by a private client. As such, the SSU Student Union in 2009 was my first public work. After this project, I designed various campus buildings throughout the following ten years, and certain insights emerged: those with regard to public architecture and alternatives to campus architecture, which I have thought of collecting and putting down in an orderly fashion if the opportunity were to arise. About ten years ago, Toyo Ito advised me to begin looking for a chance to get a public commission. I did…

Inspired by his mother’s knitting, Lee Kwangho began to braid wires, hoses, and PVC tubes. His lighting and chair works have drawn significant media attention and from design industry professionals at home and abroad. He has collaborated with famous brands such as FENDI, DIOR, Swarovski and Onitsuka Tiger, and adorned numerous spaces including Amorepacific Headquarters O’Sullok and Namhae South Cape. Although his knitted furniture successfully marks out a designer in full possession of his identity, he dares to take one step forward. The artist deals with various materials such as red copper, straw and styrofoam, fiercely expanding his territory by crossing boundaries from small objects to human-scale pavilion. He had released a chair piece using 3D printing technology instead of hand-knitting for collaborative exhibition, ‘Second Language’, with the hip-hop artist…

Aim of SPACE Academia SPACE Academia is the Architectural theory research section of SPACE. The section serves to introduce academic papers that enrich and expand the legacy of SPACE, in its search for future directions in ways of thinking about architecture. After being officially listed on the Arts & Humanities Citation Index (A&HCI), SPACE Academia was established in concurrence with its 45th anniversary issue, on November 2011. Blind peer reviews are performed twice by the chief editors and three international reviewers. SPACE Academia looks forward to the emergence of new discourse that can open up new horizons, and renew contemporary intellectual perceptions. SPACE Academia cordially invites the submission of academic papers of a high standard that can diagnose the intellectual potential of our times. Submission Guidelines Manuscripts are primarily text…

The Korean Association for Architectural History (KAAH) has conferred the 1st Korean Association for Architectural History Award on Bucheon Art Bunker B39 (see SPACE No. 610) by Kim Kwangsoo (principal, studio_K_works). The jury board carried out a document review and on-site inspection on recently constructed buildings over the past year to find examples that best explored the strata of time, paying attention to the historical contexts of architecture and cities. Aside from Bucheon Art Bunker B39, Gusan-dong Village Library (see SPACE No.580) by Choi Jaewon (principal, FLO architects) and Seoul Hall of Urbanism & Architecture by Zoh K-Chan (principal, Terminal 7 Architects) were also nominated, and the winner was decided after the final presentation held at the Monthly Academic Seminar in Mar. Bucheon Art Bunker B39 is a regeneration project…

Uncomfortable Genius These days, where the absoluteness of aesthetic standards in design is often in doubt, I feel it increasingly difficult to critique architecture. This is particularly true when I’m asked to speak about a newly-built work, which I only visited for a few hours, and where I often desire a chance to meet the inhabitant who might share his/her own living experience—but this is almost impossible. It is also not easy to fully comprehend an architectural drawing that contains a manifestation of the architect’s inner thoughts. Robin Evans, a British architect and historian, once depicted the nature of both the architect and his/her architectural drawings in an indirect way: referring to Gustave Flaubert, he conceives of an architect as ‘travelling on strange seas of thought-alone’, and also referring to…
