YEONSU LIM
Wrapped
Fascinated and intrigued by the story of Christo’s frustrated intent to wrap the Columbus statue in 1975, South-Korean artist Yeonsu Lim visited Barcelona during autumn last year.The result of her research is the series of works presented at Uxval Gochez Gallery under the title ‘Barcelona Projects’. They are preparatory drawings and proposals for wrapping famous public sculptures we can find in the city. Most of them are well-known and were created by famous artists.
Yeonsu proposes to cover the ’Mitjó' and the ’Tribute to Picasso’ (both by Antoni Tàpies) or the female figure ‘Der Morgen' (Georg Kolbe) in the Mies van der Rohe Pavillion. She even contacted the Museu Maritim to wrap the scale model of the ‘Ictineo' by Monturiol. The exhibition is completed with earlier works, showing spectacular interventions realized in Malta & Los Angeles and sculptures that will be produced in situ during a performance.
