□ 제주도립미술관(관장 최정주)은 올해 첫 전시인 <혼듸, 봄>전을 2월 25일(화)부터 2020년 5월 24일(일)까지 개최한다고 밝혔다.

□ <혼듸, 봄> 전시는 10년의 역사를 쌓아온 제주도립미술관이 2020년 새봄을 맞아 희망과 기대로 가득한 새로운 10년을 향한 첫걸음으로 도민과 관람객 모두와 ‘함께 가자’는 지향점을 담아 마련되었다.

❍ 전시제목인 ‘혼듸, 봄’은 ‘함께’라는 뜻의 제주어 ‘혼듸’와 시각예술의 감각적 사유를 상징하는 ‘본다’는 의미를 병렬한 것 으로, 우리의 사회·문화·예술적 현실과 마주하여 시각예술의 확 장성을 ‘함께 보고 느끼고 공유한다’는 의미를 포함하고 있다.

□ 본 전시에서는 국내외에서 동시대 미술의 흐름을 주도하는 13명 작가의 미디어, 설치, 평면작품 24점을 선보인다.

❍ 미디어미술분야에는 한호, 김세진, 김창겸, 김안나, 제니퍼 스타 인캠프(Jennifer Steinkamp), 유니버셜 에브리씽(Universal Everything)이, 설치 분야에는 한승구, 한경우, 최종운, 조세민이, 평면 분야에는 원성원, 김은형이 참여하여 시각예술의 확장성을 소재로 관람객과 다감각적인 소통에 나선다.

❍ 특히, 이번 전시에서는 다채로운 영상 설치와 상호적인(인터렉티브) 방식을 활용한 작품들이 선보여 관람객의 참여를 유도하고, 동시대 미술의 특징을 조밀하게 공감할 수 있는 기회를 제공한다.

❍ 현대 기술의 급속한 발전은 작가들의 창작활동의 영역을 무한히 확장시켜 왔다. 그렇게 기술과 결합된 예술은 관람객이 보다 능동적인 자세로 작품과 직접 교감할 수 있도록 유도하고 있다.

이번 전시를 통해 전통적인 영역의 시각예술의 의미를 확장해 온 동 시대 미술의 다면적 양상을 들여다보는 한편, 미술의 미래에 대해 질문하고 성찰할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

□ 제주도립미술관 최정주 관장은 “<혼듸, 봄>전은 매체의 본질을 뚫고 관계와 협력, 소통을 통해 이뤄진 감각의 확장, 미학적 진보를 경험할 수 있는 다차원적 예술 현상과 마주하는 기회”라고 밝히며 “관찰과 참여, 관계와 소통을 기반으로 한 동시대 미술의 특징을 공감할 수 있는 장이 될 것이다”고 말했다.

□ 한편 이번 <혼듸, 봄>전의 관람료는 성인 2천원이다. 전시에 대한 자세한 내용은 제주도립미술관 홈페이지(jmoa.jeju.go.kr)를 통하여 확인할 수 있다.
