Moving Time was conceived to celebrate the new time and the new beginning for the KCSNY as it marks the first exhibition of the year 2006. By making diverse range of global video art accessible to the public, the exhibition introduces the basics of video art such as medium¢®?s inherent characteristics (affordability, portability, transferability, manipulative quality, intimacy and its capacity for instantaneous transmission for image etc.) and its wide and ever expanding sub- categories. Moving Time salutes and explores video art's capacity to represent time not only as a theme but also as a constituent parameter of the nature of video art. Whether it is a work contemplating on the notions of temporal magnitude; protracted duration in ambiguous narrative and slow motion or temporal compression in electronic-collage or animation incorporating super- advanced technology, or exploring temporal matrix, temporal moment, temporal direction, or temporal event, the works in Moving Time have been selected to demonstrate individual¢®?s identification, translation and expression of time with e/motions; that is motion, emotion and electric motion. The curators of this exhibition give thanks to 30 most innovative, supportive and generous artists who have agreed in joy to pay humble but heart felt tribute to Nam June Paik who has been influential in every area of video art since he unleashed it in1965. It is an honor to have Nam June Paik-the father of video art-as the special guest artist in Moving Time.
The exhibition consists of three parts, each containing works of 10 artists
to be shown for 10 days. Nam June Paik's works will be on view at all
times.
Moving Time is curated by Hwang Yu Jin, Jeeyun Kim, Inhee Iris Moon
