《Querencia》 For Your Repose
Period/ 2018.08.31(Fri) ~ 2018.09.28(Fri)
Venue/ Dongducheon Do Dream Small Museum
Gyeonggi Cultural Foundation (president: Seol Won-ki) and Dongducheon City (mayor: Oh Se-chang) planned the fourth special exhibition this year. 《Querencia: For Your Repose》 is an upcycling exhibition that might feel unusual to the residents who are living in the outskirts of northern Gyeonggi, an area isolated from art and culture. Sculptures made with abandoned nickel-silver pots, scrap metal, and waste candles will be displayed inside and outside of the museum to enable many residents to see.
A total of 28 pieces will be on show at the exhibition hall, lobby, entrance, rooftop garden, and outdoor park with a hight floating population. Anyone can not only watch but touch the art works and take pictures of them.
“Querencia,” the title of the exhibition, means a place of repose in Spanish. It refers to the certain area where the bull can escape from any attacks and threats in a bullfight. As a bull catches its breath and prepares for the next fight, modern people need somewhere to cure their exhausted body and soul due to fierce competition. Thus, the exhibition was designed to suggest a place for brief refreshment for the residents.
