駐香港韓國文化院開院三週年紀念:心繫首爾 The Third Anniversary of the Korean Cultural Center in Hong Kong



《心繫首爾》集合 12 位活躍於韓國當代攝影界的韓國攝影家,以照片展示韓國首都首爾過去 40 年間 (60年代末至2010年代初) 的面貌。


1960 末,韓國人紛紛唱著《首爾讚歌》嚮往首爾的美好生活。城市急速發展,如今已搖身一變成現代的國際大都市。


年齡及背景各異的 12 位韓國攝影家,以老中青不同世代的視角,捕捉各個破壞與建設的現場、傳統及現代之衝突,演繹出首爾的多元城貌。儘管置身於無數變化和混亂之中,攝影家們保持尖銳諷刺的眼光,探索首爾浮華背後的真面目。觀眾能感受攝影家們對舊首爾急速消失的悔恨,再探索《首爾讚歌》美好光景背後的荒謬及矛盾。


展覽探討香港及其他與首爾歷史文化相似的國際大都市,期待引發討論及分享多元觀點。同時,透過積極推廣韓國攝影藝術,展覽亦為韓港藝術文化交流奠定基礎。

Mega Seoul 4 Decades presents the photographs of capital Seoul for 4 decades (the late 1960s~the early 2010s) through perspectives of 12 Korean photographers.


The group encompasses elder, middle and rising photographers who are still active in the firm of Korean contemporary photography with different ages and backgrounds. They have captured the Seoul city in repeated vortex of collision and construction. The huge city, where different trends co-exist, is exposed by each generation’s distinctive perspective. It is from the late 60s, when everything headed to Seoul while people were singing the “Hymn of Seoul” until the present, when the city blew up to a global mega city.


Although the photographers gave themselves into numerous changes and dissonances of the city, they show arduous photographic progress to reveal the inside facts and the hidden side of “Hymn of Seoul” responding with sharp and ironic perspective or remain aloof to the contradictory city.


In this exhibition, audiences can experience the documentary of the old Seoul that vanished too many and too fast, and the city’s absurdity. This exhibition seeks to explore viewpoints that can be shared between Hong Kong and other modern mega places which has historical and cultural similarities with Seoul. And also expects to become a positive opportunity to show various Korean photography, and to pave the way for cultural exchanges between South Korea and Hong Kong.
