  • BAIK ART SEOUL Installation of Working on Paper, Baik Art Seoul
    ELLIOTT HUNDLEY WORKING ON PAPER BAIK ART SEOUL Installation of Working On Paper, Baik Art Seoul BAIK ART SEOUL is pleased to present Elliott Hundley’s first solo exhibition in Korea, Working On Paper, ,May 20 - June 19, 2021. Working on Paper is Elliott’s introduction to exhibiting in Asia and will be his first show focusing primarily on drawing works. For Elliott, these works portray a floating state of consciousness. Drawing allows him to recover lost stimuli and discover facts that he had been previously unaware of. These works contain personal stories reflecting the artist’s inner narrative. Drawing so far has been a one-on-one conversation with himself, so this exhibition allows him to take these conversations out into the world. ELLIOTT HUNDLEY Elliott Hundley (b. 1975) received his BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design (1997) and his MFA from the University of California, Los Angeles (2005). He lives and works in Los Angeles. Selected solo exhibitions include The Bacchae, Wexner Center for the Arts, Columbus (2011); Nasher Sculpture Center, Dallas (2012); and Hammer Museum, Los Angeles (2006). He has been featured in numerous group shows, including the 7th Moscow International Biennale of Contemporary Art (2017- 2018); A Journey That Wasn’t, The Broad, Los Angeles (2018-2019); San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (2017-2018); Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles (2015); and the Istanbul Museum of Modern Art (2015); among others. Hundley is a recent recipient of a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Guggenheim Fellowship (2019). Work by the artist is held in prominent museum collections, including the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, Humlebæk; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; Nasher Sculpture Center, Dallas; Pérez Art Museum, Miami; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Solomon R.
