“Night Shift: 2021 Title Match: Minouk Lim vs. Young-gyu Jang” is a joint exhibition that is organized by the Buk-Seoul Museum of Art (SeMA) every year. The exhibition aims to break the framework and redefine its name, which implies competition, by presenting collaborations between artists from different generations and genres. This year, artist Minouk Lim and musician Young-gyu Jang have been invited to collaborate. Encompassing the boundaries between art, music, exhibition, and media, the two artists propose the word “shift,” which contains the meaning of circulation and coexistence, within the principle of reconstruction. The two expand their perspectives on space and time, tracking what changes, moves, or does not change.
 

The Schinkel Pavillon brings together the worlds of the late Swiss visionary HR Giger (1940-2014) and the South Korean artist Mire Lee (b. 1988), transforming into a site for an exploration of the darkest aisles of the human body and psyche. This equally seductive and dystopian scenario is the first institutional exhibition of Giger’s work in Germany, as well as the first major presentation of Lee’s work here.

Alice’s Cat is a retrospective exhibition of the representative Korean abstract artist Wook-kyung Choi (1940-1985), on view from October 27. This exhibition aims to revisit and reinterpret Choi’s oeuvre by focusing on the multilayered linkages between her art and her engagement with literature through poetry, and her interest in Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland (1865).
