权基洙《等待时间》2008年作 亚克力 画布
款识:权基洙 Kwon Ki Soo 2008(画背)

  • Notes: Kwon Ki Soo’s representative figure Dongguri floats on a red lake surrounded by ripples, amidst highly decorative flowers and tree trunks composed of blocks of color. This scene blends a fairy-tale dreamscape with urban sensuality, presenting a contemporary Korean aesthetic full of tension and visual delight.

    This work uses bright red as the dominant tone, conveying a mood of quiet anticipation through layers of silver ripples. Dongguri, always smiling, expresses the artist’s philosophical reflections on seeking inner purity and hope within a complex reality. In terms of technique, Kwon Ki-soo merges traditional East Asian totemic motifs with the formal language of pop art, employing flat painting, repetition, and minimalist black-and-white figures to create a distinctive fusion of Eastern and Western visual elements.

    "Time-wait For", created in 2008, represents a pivotal moment in the maturation of Kwon Ki Soo’s visual language. Works from this period have been exhibited and featured in international art fairs across Seoul, New York, Hong Kong, and other cities, earning both academic and market acclaim.

    权基洙的代表人物“Dongguri”漂浮于涟漪环绕的红色湖面之上,周围点缀着极具装饰性的繁花与色块构成的树干,将一种童话般的梦幻语境和都市感性色彩相融合,呈现出充满张力与视觉快感的当代韩流美学。

    此作以鲜明的红为主调,在层层晕染的银色波纹中传达出一种静谧等待的情绪,而Dongguri始终面带微笑,传递出艺术家在纷繁现实中寻求内心纯粹与希望的哲思。在技法上,权基洙将传统东亚图腾图式与波普艺术的形式语言相融合,以平涂、重复与极简的黑白人物处理,达成东西融合的个人风格。

    《等待时间》创作于2008年,是权基洙艺术实践中图像语言最为成熟的重要阶段。该时期作品多次现身于首尔、纽约及香港等地展览与国际艺博会,具有较高的学术与市场认可度。
