| Zusammenfassung: | Do Ho Suhs hugely popular installations have been drawing audiences around the world for more than two decades. Their themes of displacement, transience, and longing reflect the artists own nomadic existence as a Korean émigré. Now this unique volume, which contains numerous previously unpublished drawings and sketches, reveals not only the genesis of Suhs sculptural and installation pieces but also his efforts to translate his artistic motivations to paper using a variety of traditional and non-traditional media. Grouped thematically around ideas of self-exploration, relationships, home, states of transition, and Karma, the book features works in pencil, airbrush, watercolor, rubbings, architectural renderings, and thread drawings, which are sewn and embedded into handmade pulp. In addition, sketches from the artists private notebooks show the inception points for the germination of his ideas. This book also includes three essays focusing on Suhs personal journeys, his architectural drawings, and paper sculpture |
