三(san)影(ying)堂攝影(ying)藝術(shu)中心榮幸地呈現展覽(lan)“徘徊久-具本(ben)昌攝影(ying)（1990-2021）”。本(ben)展覽(lan)是(shi)韓國攝影(ying)家(jia)具本(ben)昌在中國的個展，以(yi)藝術(shu)家(jia)早期(qi)作品“初始”為起(qi)點，梳(shu)理了其近(jin)三(san)十年來的“面具”、“息(xi)”、“白瓷”、“金”等系列作品。

具本昌作為攝影(ying)家和(he)策(ce)展人的身(shen)份活躍于韓國(guo)當代(dai)攝影(ying)領域。自商(shang)(shang)業管理(li)專業轉向(xiang)攝影(ying)藝(yi)術實(shi)為天性(xing)使然。具本昌在入職商(shang)(shang)業公司(si)后抽(chou)身(shen)離(li)開，前往德國(guo)學(xue)習藝(yi)術，在那里，自幼被(bei)深埋的內斂、敏感和(he)細(xi)膩與攝影(ying)相遇。背(bei)離(li)家族期待投身(shen)充滿不(bu)確定(ding)性(xing)的藝(yi)術，具本昌早(zao)期的作品暗涌著每一(yi)個選擇做出(chu)時的掙扎與苦楚—觸手時的渴求，回望(wang)時的空(kong)無(wu)一(yi)物。

二十世(shi)紀末期是具(ju)本(ben)昌人生(sheng)和創作的(de)(de)(de)(de)轉折(zhe)點。隨(sui)著病榻上(shang)父親呼吸(xi)與(yu)精神的(de)(de)(de)(de)消(xiao)散，具(ju)本(ben)昌的(de)(de)(de)(de)目光與(yu)視角投向失落的(de)(de)(de)(de)空(kong)間(jian)中，他(ta)的(de)(de)(de)(de)思考從沉(chen)重(zhong)的(de)(de)(de)(de)個體(ti)意(yi)義(yi)的(de)(de)(de)(de)追求，釋放到渺(miao)小(xiao)但永恒的(de)(de)(de)(de)存在。“命運之于生(sheng)命的(de)(de)(de)(de)不確定(ding)性、生(sheng)物(wu)(wu)與(yu)非(fei)生(sheng)物(wu)(wu)的(de)(de)(de)(de)腐朽與(yu)消(xiao)逝(shi)”成(cheng)為藝(yi)術家后續(xu)創作探討的(de)(de)(de)(de)主題，焚燒的(de)(de)(de)(de)相(xiang)紙和傳統祭(ji)祀的(de)(de)(de)(de)面具(ju)成(cheng)為在現(xian)實世(shi)界與(yu)精神世(shi)界之間(jian)擺渡的(de)(de)(de)(de)靈媒。具(ju)本(ben)昌是時(shi)間(jian)殘骸的(de)(de)(de)(de)收藏者：溶(rong)解的(de)(de)(de)(de)香皂、古老的(de)(de)(de)(de)白瓷、墻壁(bi)的(de)(de)(de)(de)灰塵(chen)，被藝(yi)術家置于無色無光無影(ying)的(de)(de)(de)(de)虛空(kong)，在消(xiao)逝(shi)與(yu)永恒的(de)(de)(de)(de)迷(mi)宮(gong)中徘徊不散。

Lingering in Time: Koo Bohnchang’s Photography (1990-2021)

Three Shadows Photography Art Centre is proud to present “Lingering in Time: Koo Bohnchang’s Photography (1990-2021).” The exhibition is noted Korean photographer Koo Bohnchang’s first solo show in China. Starting with In the Beginning, the exhibition presents thirteen important series created over the last thirty years, including Mask, Breath, Vessel, and Gold.

Koo Bohnchang has long been active in the South Korean contemporary photography scene as a photographer and curator. His transition from a business administration degree to a photography practice was quite natural. After he quit his job at a large corporation, he traveled to Germany to study. There, the restraint, sensitivity, and refinement that had been buried deep within him from a young age found its match in photography. After deviating from his family’s expectations and immersing himself in the uncertainty of an artistic career, Koo’s early work was imbued with the struggle and suffering of every decision when it was made—the longing for touch and the emptiness of looking back.

The 1990s were a turning point in his life and work. After his father’s breath and spirit slowly left him, Koo’s gaze turned to spaces of absence, and his thinking shifted away from the pursuit of weighty individual meaning and toward insignificant yet eternal presences. In his later work, he has explored the uncertainty of fate in our lives and how living and non-living things decay and fade away. Burning photo paper and masks from traditional ceremonies have become mediums between the earthly and spiritual realms. Koo Bohnchang is a collector of vestiges of time. He places dissolving bars of soap, ancient porcelain, and dust on walls into voids without color, light, or shadow; they linger in the labyrinth of the vanishing and the eternal.
