홍명섭에 있어 조각 개념의 확장과 해체에 대한 연구

Abstract

This is the study on the conceptual expansion and deconstruction on Hong myung seop's sculpture, analysing his artwork. The purpose of this study is to prospect the artistic phase and esthetic issue of artist Hong on the on a artistic point of view. Although Hong’s art consist of conceptual characters, because many of his work shows experimental qualities, it is too soon to conclude that he is a conceptual artist. Within his abstractive work, the stages of diffėrance and déconstruction continuously appear. This study analyzes artist Hong's artwork based on the two major keywords of his art; diffėrance and déconstruction. Artist Hong is a unique type of artist who is both a creator and the writer. The fact that he critics his own work give enough reason to become the subject of many studies. However, due his personal characteristics, esthetic and philosophical aspects inhere in his writings. This study focus on his work of two major periods of his paradigm. One is the period between his pre structuralism and post-structuralism when he was well affected by Jacque Derriad's diffėrance and déconstruction. Second is the period of post-structuralism when he was influence by Roland Barthes's jouissance and Le Plaisir of text. To add more weight to the study, the analysis was also based on the world pioneer of post modernism philosophic critics, Antonin artaud and Jacque Derriad's jouissance and déconstruction and George Bataille's pleasure. This study has concluded the artist Hong's status and the position of his work into esthetic, critical and status categories. 1. Hong's esthetic issue: Jacque Derriad's diffėrance and déconstruction and Roland Barthes's jouissance and Le Plaisir of text. 2. Distinction to the conceptual art: go beyond the limitation of conceptual art though sense and time. 3. Hong myung seop and post-modernism; experimental artist with post-modernism metacritic Artist Hong's sculpture consist of mutant character such as abstract experimental art. His art consist of following aspect; Jacque Derriad's diffėrance and déconstruction, Roland Barthes's jouissance and Le Plaisir of text and George Bataille's pleasure. By combining such aspects, Hong's sculpture expands its nature beyond. It is the performance mutation which the sculpture has been expanded its limit by trying out many conceptual experiments. It is the performance which appears in many different object and experimental artwork. Artist Hong's art has its fundamental aura as sculpture, although his work seems much more of an installation art. Hong starts his work as a basic sculpture while showing the concept of Duchamp, and as time passes, the sculpture expands to conceptual experiment art. Thus his work seems to continue while the concept continuously expands through Jacque Derriad's diffėrance and déconstruction. He claims the viewer to become the subject which his sculpture continuously communicate and open up many possibilities of analysis which the viewer can come up with. Such method keeps induces the sensual Improvisation which completes the sculpture. This study concludes that the artist Hong myung seop has emphasized the importance of sensuality each time beyond the conceptual characteristics of the sculpture. Although the artist consists of conceptual artistic side, he had the critical minds to expand beyond. The artist's critical mind has resulted the déconstruction of sculpturalconcept. In the end, to artist Hong, the destruction and the expanding of sculpture is to reach the point of unlimited time change and the expansion of sensuality. Using the relation between his sculpture and the viewer, and metaphor and metonymy, the artist keeps trigger the fresh new allegory analysis. This is one of the distinctive characteristic of post-modernism. Diffėrance, another method to analyze déconstruction, repetitions, fragmentation, replicated of his work. shows that Hong myung seop has been affected by post modernism critique and that he deconstruct his artwork by quoting “conceptual expansion of sculpture”, and “esthetic aspect of the post-structuralism” from his own words. Based on the critical characteristics, it is appeared that the artist Hong is avant garde experimental artist through metacritic (giving critique to given critique). His sculptures and his critiques have one thing in common. It is the endless research through subversivity and critique. Artist Hong myung seop is innovative and experimental artist who does no settle in one concept but keep proceeding with the metacritique based on current artistic concept. He reflects his post-modernism critical nature on his art and his words to experiment ways be become avant garde. Using Jacques Derrida’s diffėrance and déconstruction from the period between prestructurism and post-structuralism, and Ronland Barthes and Antonin artaud from the period of post-structuralism, the artist Hong gave much expanded critique to jouissance. Also through George Bataille, Hong has carried on déconstructing Bataille’s Le Plaisir. Although the result might be different to the artist's intention, this study ends with the importance of analyzing through many different perspective and rediscovering the artist's status within critique.
