Information

KORNFELD Galerie Berlin and the Korean gallery SEOJUNG ART present the group exhibition Ecocycle from January 24 to February 22, 2025, at KORNFELD and its project space, 68projects. Featuring seven artists from Germany, China, and Korea, the exhibition explores universal themes of ecology, humanity, and cultural interconnectedness. Ecocycle unites contrasting elements—light and darkness, city and nature, water and earth, rationality and irrationality—through harmonious artistic expressions. The selected artists, spanning generations and cultural influences, combine traditional and modern techniques to reexamine our shared world.

This collaboration reflects the commitment of KORNFELD and SEOJUNG ART to fostering intercultural dialogue and creating a cyclical exchange of artistic perspectives. The exhibition serves as a platform for Korean and international artists to transcend boundaries and engage in meaningful discourse. The featured artists are Jungwon Phee (1993), Gee Song (1980), Chounhwan Lee (1956), Yeonhwa Huh (1988), Nanan Kang (1979), Jay Gard (1984), and Rao Fu (*1978). The exhibition’s title, Ecocycle, is a blend of "eco" (ecology) and "cycle," referring not only to bionomics and environmental science but also basic human needs.
