4TH SEOUL INTERNATIONAL MEDIA ART BIENNALE 2006
Dual Realities
18 October – 10 December 2006
Director : Wonil Rhee
Curators : Yuko Hasegawa, Lev Manovich, Inris Mayer, Pi Li
The 4th biennale focused on the New Physicality that was developing as a response to the increasing interrelation of the physical and the virtual, a result of the advancements in internet and multimedia technologies. The exhibition analyzed the relationship of these distinct realities, their mutual interdependency, and the paradoxical situation of the virtual exerting significant influence over the physical. The exhibition approached the concept of New Physicality with an artistic language and exhibition structure that sublimated notions of positive and negative, the division and integration of cyberspace, and even healing through three subthemes, “Dual Realities: Encounter and Clash,” “Extension of Reality: Permeation of Experience and Play,” and “Competitive Realities: Seeking A New Relationship.”
