CHANG HEAVY INDUSTRIES
-> work in the exhibition
[ROK]
artists project
YOUNG-HAE CHANG HEAVY INDUSTRIES
was founded in Seoul by Young-hae Chang, C.E.O., and Marc Voge,
C.I.O. It combines text with jazz to create Web pieces that present,
for instance, a Homeric hero searching for sublime meaning in the
insignificance of a life lived anywhere but where it seemingly counts;
Asian businessmen and bar hostesses drinking the night away; a man
who dies and is reborn as a stick; a Korean cleaning lady who is
really a French philosopher; an illegal immigrant in a holding cell
under the Justice Palace, in Paris; a woman who sexually embraces
corporate monopoly; an evening with Sam Beckett in a bordello; a
night roundup followed by an execution; the Riviera; Saul.
