The Marble Palace

Aiyoung Yun, the Korean leaving in Paris, had her personal exhibitions in London, Madrid, Paris, and took part in international such exhibitions as FIAC (Paris), ARCO (Madrid), biennial Kvanchzhu (South Korea). She is a videoartist and her main material is reminiscences and dreams. She uses effect of video installation intensified with sound and three-dimensional space to make a reality of a transition state between tangibility and illusiveness of the world. Video art allowed the young artist to express the many-dimensional world. The exhibition in the Marble Palace presents one of Aiyoung Yun's installations, Secret Garden, where the world of reminiscences and fantasies of the artist is religiously recreated with the help of video projections, lasers, three-dimensional images and sounds. In a dark hall, in the middle of an artificial phosphorescent garden there is a flowered almond-tree, and transparent screens with video projections of the naked artist levitating above streams of water in its branches. Among the artificial flowers, situated along the paths of the garden, video projections are blooming. Murmur of a waterfall mixes with puffs. The exhibition is organized with the help of the French Institute in St.Petersburg, the Korean Ministry of Culture and Tourism, the Russian representative office of the company Samsung Electronics, the Korean fund of Art and Culture and the gallery Les Filles du Calvaire (Paris), the Embassy of Korean republic in Moscow.
