Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Honjok is the revolutionary philosophy that teaches us to appreciate our moments of solitude and help us tranforming our self-isolation into a new lifestyle. This book describes Honjok in all of its facets, among which honbap - eating alone, honsul - drinking alone and honnol - playing and spending time alone. The book is structured in short chapters where text, graphics and illustrations work as complementary narrative elements. Each chapter, identifiable by a specific colour, is self-contained and requires no cross-referencing. Readers are free to approach the book in whichever order they prefer with illustrations and infographics that allow them to interact with the book. AUTHORS: Sylvia Lazzaris is an Italian researcher and freelance journalist based in England. She is specialised in the relationship between technology and society. She publishes investigative reports and in-depth articles in a number of international newspapers, including the Corriere della Sera and the BBC. Jade Jeongso An, who was born in Ulsan, South Korea, and later moved to Berlin, will contribute to the book by presenting the viewpoints of the Korean population, for example the young people who practice Honjok, the earlier generations, restaurant and bar owners and other companies who have taken the opportunity to create a new, tailor-made economy fit for individuals. 50 illustrations This book describes Honjok in all of its facets, among which honbap - eating alone, honsul - drinking alone and honnol - playing and spending time alone.

Paperback. Condición: New. London and Seoul-based Korean artist Meekyoung Shin (b.1967) is internationally renowned for her sculptures that probe the mis- and re-translations that often emerge when objects of distinct cultural and historical specificity are dislocated from their original context. Made from soap, her works replicate artefacts and canonical works of art, from Asian porcelain vases to Greek and Roman sculptures, translating between continents, cultures and centuries in the process. Meekyoung Shin was born in South Korea and completed her BFA and MFA at Seoul National University. In 1995, she moved to London to obtain her MFA at the Slade School of Art, University College London, and has since held solo exhibitions internationally including at Haunch of Venison, London (2010) and the Korean Cultural Centre UK, London (2013). She has participated in numerous group shows including at the Museum of Art and Design, New York, and the 2013 Asian Art Biennial in Taiwan. Her works are found in collections all over the world, including the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston and the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea. Shin was nominated for the Korea Artist Prize 2013. In this new monograph on the artist, Jonathan Watkins sets the scene for Shin's solo exhibition at the Korean Cultural Centre UK in London in late autumn 2013, a stone's throw from Nelson's Column and the 'Fourth Plinth' commission of Trafalgar Square. Context is essential to Shin's practice, and indeed, to her identity. As she asserts: 'I often identify myself as someone on the border between cultures'. Watkins eloquently introduces Shin's major bodies of work whilst capturing the cultural complexity, exquisite craftsmanship, conceptual elegance and natural wit embodied within them.An essay by Ben Tufnell explores the cultural and historical references in Shin's work over the past fifteen years. Taking Shin's solo exhibition at Haunch of Venison in London in 2011 as his point of departure, he opens up questions of anthropology and museology, of what is exhibited where and when, by and for whom. His incisive analysis of Crouching Aphrodite (2002) - a life-size sculpture of the artist's own body in the pose of the classical Venus of Vienne from the Louvre - raises issues of Eastern and Western culture, of originality and copying: 'Being neither fully Asian nor fully Roman it inhabits a cultural limbo space.' Tufnell explains, 'Shin's works are not simply replicas or reproductions but strange twins, uncanny avatars of their precursors.' Curator and art historian Kyung An's text offers an illuminating account of Shin's Written in Soap: A Plinth Project (2012-ongoing), which takes the form of a remarkable public art project in which the artist recreates - out of soap - a large equestrian military statue of Prince William Augustus, the Duke of Cumberland, that once stood in Cavendish Square, London. Having initiated a project that contributes to debates on public monument building, Shin then cre. …
