BOOMER GALLERY MAGAZINE | FIRST EDITION | THE NEW ARTIST
In the last hundred years humankind has seen unprecedented innovations and changes- from skyscrapers to moon landing to social media to human rights to Art. In this very moment in our society everything moves really fast, time doesn’t seem sufficient anymore, artists seem to find their path much harder, the ongoing changes create a need for a continuous state of Transcendence. The aim of this publication is to find out what’s the trend in contemporary art and to create a dialogue between the artists and the viewers. In our first edition we have the honour of presenting 185 artists from all around the world. Their works and biographies are truly amazing and inspiring and we really hope you will enjoy reading it.

Ohkyoung Noh
Ohkyoung Noh (b.1997) is a socially-engaged artist and progressive
educator based in Seoul, South Korea.
For the past three years, Noh is interested in highlighting
various kinds of “dislocation” that city dwellers experience due
to their limited resources. “Dislocation” occurs when residents’
largely unsuccessful attempts to make their dreams of ideal
living conditions real create a variety of mismatches between
their expectations and their limited materials. This state indicates
the unattainability of one’s ideals and the insufficiency
of our material lives but also are easily neglected by the same
person unmindful of visual and material ironies. Noh visualizes
this matrix of dislocated ideals in a city by layering and
contrasting multiple examples of individuals’ hoped-for ideals
and their actual material conditions through performance,
digital images, and installations as well as urban media. Noh’s
works have been exhibited in A-brick Gallery, Woosuk Gallery,
Hongik Museum of Art(HOMA), and CICA Museum.
