Namwon Choi: En Route

Laney Contemporary is pleased to present a solo exhibition by Korean-born, Savannah-based artist, Namwon Choi. En Route features a selection of hand-painted gouache landscapes on panel that suggest the transformative nature of conceptual landscape. Extensively trained in traditional Korean painting at Hongik University in Seoul, Korea, Choi’s attention to detail, texture, linework, and atmospheric effect read as photo-realistic while the liminal spaces of the road suggest a critical reflection upon how landscape, space, travel, idealism, and realism are not static, but ever-adjusting cultural constructions.
