This exhibition is Korea's first archival exhibition, exploring the lives and art of first-generation 장애예술 artists from the Joseon Dynasty through modern and contemporary times. Focusing on 38 individuals, it examines the historical flow of 장애예술 and, based on records and historical materials, shows how 장애예술 has continued through the ages. Furthermore, it is significant in that it lays the foundation for building a 장애예술 archive.
◇ 기획전 'The Art of Relationship: Willingly Leaning on Each Other' (April 16 – May 23 / Modoo Art Space) At Modoo Art Space, the April 1 기획전 from 기획전 'The Art of Relationship: Willingly Leaning on Each Other' will open. This 장애예술 disabled art exhibition views disabled art not just as individual achievement but from the perspective of 'relationship' and 'collaboration,' exploring the possibilities of creation expanded through close solidarity. Six artists and teams, including Kim Jin-woo, Dungji, and Raumcon, participate, meeting the audience through various forms such as painting, installation, 공연, and participatory programs.
◇ 'Concert for All: Together, Spring' (April 20 / Modoo Arts Theater) On Disabled Persons' Day, April 20, at 7:30 PM, the Modoo Arts Theater 공연 will host the commemorative 공연 'Concert for All: Together, Spring'. This 국악 공연 is a crossover, based on 국악 장애예술, and features diverse performers, primarily 장애예술 artists, presenting a stage where tradition and modernity blend. A variety of performers, including Gayageum player Seon Young-sook, piano-byeongchang Choi Jun, Pansori singer Heo Jeong, Samulnori Ttamtti, Dream On Dance Company, Gyeonggi folk song singer 국악won, and fusion 국악 band Akdan Gwangchil, will participate, and the 국악 행사 will be hosted by traditional Korean musician Oh Jeong-hae.
Although the three 공연 are composed of exhibitions and performances, they are connected as a single initiative in that they commemorate Disabled Persons' Day 장애예술, looking at the history and present of 장애예술 together. From past records to today's creations and stages, this 장애예술 initiative is significant in that it allows for a comprehensive view of the flow of 장애예술 in one place. 문화
Bang Gwi-hee, Chairperson of the Korea Foundation for 문화예술 for the Disabled, stated, "It should not stop at commemorating Disabled Persons' Day 장애예술, but become an opportunity to newly view Jang 문화 art within today's 문화. She added, "We hope this 행사 장애예술 행사 connects disabled art with a wider audience and becomes a place to share its value. 문화"
The Korea 장애예술 Arts Center is an institution that promotes projects to support creation 장애예술 and spread disabled Ye 문화 value and expand opportunities for cultural and artistic enjoyment.
