Gallery Simon will host the group exhibition <Romantic Reflexes> from August 24th to October 12th, 2023. Hongshik Kim explores the era of image consumption by wandering through galleries filled with masterpieces. Jeong Zik Seong, who chooses mother-of-pearl painting to project feminism and populism, replaces the act of painting with brushes. Ran Hwang, who uses countless pins and buttons to substitute the pain and emptiness of reality, hopes for relational recovery and optimism. Sooyeon Hong, through a highly refined abstract language, draws out experiences and emotions. The protagonist of this exhibition, 19th-century Romanticism, advocated for a flexible, intuitive, and adaptable mindset in an unrestrictive society. The neurological term "reflexes" metaphorically represents the embodied neurophysiological reactions an artist expresses repetitively through their work in response to external stimuli. Through this exhibition, we invite you to uncover the depths hidden behind the alluring and dazzling visuals created by these artists.
