To make something happen without having
things done
Lee Su Jeong, Curator (National Museum of
Modern and Contemporary Art)
Tentatively named Plan B, the artists’
group was organized in the spring of 2012, when three artists who had some
connection with an art critic-cum-independent curator embarked on a media project
for the Expo 2012 Yeosu Corporate Pavilion. While they were already involved in
Plan A for an exhibition at the time, they were given a task to produce a new
joint-work for the Corporate Pavilion. Despite concerns, they completed the
project without a hitch. Against our expectations that the team would be
dissolved after completion of the project, they took part in exhibitions at Art
Center Nabi, Arko Art Center, Nam June Paik Art Center, and others under the
name of Plan B and worked as resident artists for the Seoul Art
Space_Geumcheon. Almost three years have passed, but they are still working
together under the name Plan B. Although the group is comprised of art major Ryu
Han Gil, who has engaged in performance and planning events and has been busy at
raising questions about the absurd, art major Yun Ji Hyun who studied media art
at graduate school, and also former programmer and musician Kim Tai Yun, who
has worked as a one-man band, they have little in common. When they chat
together, however, they can discuss a variety of topics for many hours. They have
maintained a considerably good relationship, recommending books on the problems
one worries about, as one solves some difficult technical problems for the
other. As each member of the group has a pretty busy schedule, they are not so
strongly tied to one another. What’s attractive in their group activities is
not their active endeavors to execute something together but their mutual
support of their lives properly as they please. Unlike other media artists who
are inclined to visual spectacles, they have consistently executed critical work
on the nature and attributes of the media such as the perils of SNS and the
fabricated fairness of portal search engines, sharing the pleasure of living as
creators not consumers. Unlike other art groups producing pseudo-media artworks
for a commercial purpose, Plan B would not or may not turn out any spectacles
or controversial pieces for good. However, they do not care about this because
their ideal is to live as creators who are not ashamed of themselves.
