Press Release

The Page Gallery presents 무비 無比, Square in Site-specific, a group exhibition of 5 artists who established their own distinctive artistic universe by producing works with pale monochrome, grid patterns, horizontal and vertical lines, or completely three-dimensional square works until 30 November 2022.

The exhibition showcases a total of 47 works, including paintings and drawings by Agnes Martin in the 1990s and works by Donald Judd made between 1980s and 1990s, as well as works by Soohyeok Shin, Sangyeul Yoon and Yisu Kim. Paying attention to the beauty of the proportions flowing in the works, it is revealed as a fundamental principle penetrating the works of the five artists. Mu (無, nothing) is not absolute non-existence or nothingness, rather connoting endless and infinite possibilities.

The most solid and stable square with a perfect proportion equals a trapezoid, a parallelogram, a rectangle, or a rhombus. You get a regular octagon if you cut out a right triangle from the four vertices of a square. If you bisect or quarter it, you get a right triangle. Starting from the square with the most stable proportion, embracing the elasticity to become any forms if trimmed, this exhibition expresses another energy as the infinite proportions and possibilities interpreted and defined by each artist combined in one space beyond eras, concepts, genders, and ages.
