“Michael Joo: Sweat Models 1991–2026” at Space ZeroOne (@zeroone.space ) was featured in the latest issue of The New York Times (@nytimes ).
“For artists, exploring the theme of humanism often involves depicting the figure. Much of Joo’s art has evoked the body, but usually indirectly, as seen in his show earlier this year at Space ZeroOne in Manhattan, a nonprofit exhibition space run by the Hanwha Foundation of Culture,” writes Ted Loos (@looslips ).

Watch Emily Cheng and Christopher Y. Lew in conversation for ‘In the Weave of Worlds,’ now in its final week at Silverlens New York.
Geometry is only one of the many frameworks through which the mystery of the cosmos manifests. How otherwise might the design of the Sacred be revealed is a constant query behind Emily Cheng’s artistic pursuit. In her paintings, one finds both geomancy and geometry, DNA spirals and Daoist talisman, electromagnetic grids and qi-energy network.
Words by Chang Tsong-Zung
‘In the Weave of Worlds’ is on view through 2 May.

“Revisiting these early works is like tracing a network of ideas that has been evolving for decades. This exhibition brings those foundational questions about materiality, data, and identity into focus at a moment when the relationship between art and technology is being reexamined. Presenting the work in New York adds another layer of meaning, extending a conversation that has always been central to my practice.” - @michaeljoostudio
