[Ko Hun signed a managent contract with Sunflower!]
[Curator Bang Taeho established an artist managent company]
[What's Ko Huns next move?]
In March, Artist Ko Hun, who caused a stir with [Frost Wheatfield] winning $14 million, signed a managerial contract with fledgling managent company Sunflower.
Sunflower is an Artist managent company founded by Bang Taeho (39 years old), one of the best curators in Korea.
Ko Hun reportedly invested directly in Sunflower.
Experts see why Ko Hun did not sign a contract with proven dostic managent such as Legion Academy or famous overseas managent as an advantage to lead the profit allocation.
In the future, Ko Hun will receive support for exhibition schedule managent and promotion, tax issues, copyright protection, and dostic and foreign activities through Sunflower.
There are voices of concern about the managent business challenge for Bang Taeho, forr chief curator of the WH Art Museum.
So of the art community and so of Ko Hun's fans are pointing out that they have no managent experience, questioning whether Bang Taeho's planning ability will work overseas.
On April 5, however, Sunflower officially announced that it has signed a public relations model contract worth 600,000 euros (about 800 million won) with German paint maker Schmincke.
It also announced that Ko Hun has been invited to the Whitney Biennale, an international art festival that will be held from the 21st, signaling a cruise.
Attention is focused on how Ko Hun, who is building a global reputation, will et a new partner and act.
Lee Inho (The Korean Express)
The fact that Ko Hun, who made a fuss in Korea last month, received full support from a strong paint company and news that he will participate in the Whitney Biennale, an art festival attended by people around the world, was widely reported.
Artists, art lovers, and netizens who were watching Ko Hun closely responded in various ways.
Do Painters have a manager?
Usually, they do everything by themselves, but when it cos to Ko Hun, he needs soone to help him.
It's absolutely necessary for Ko Hun. You can belong to a gallery, but if there are dozens or hundreds of people together, it becos difficult to schedule an exhibition at will.
It's better to walk around with the managent. It's interesting that he didn't go to Legion Academy.
Did he have to invest directly? Why cant he just leave it to Bang Taeho?
According to the article written by Lee In-ho, it seems that it is because of the profit distribution ratio.
Bang Taeho is doing well in outside activities. Since Ko Hun is so popular, Im sure he will get a lot of advertisents and invitations.
For a one-year contract of 600,000 euros, that's a great deal.
He almost missed the Whitney Biennale this year.
Ko Hun has created an Instagram account.
He's posting up his workspace.
His friend is also cute.
I went in to look if there were pictures of paintings, but there were only pictures of food.
It's so cute that he looks happy with his plump cheeks.
I think he's a made-up artist. It doesn't make sense that a painting of a 10-year-old or 11-year-old is worth 16.3 billion won.
Every painter is made. They can't do anything without soone who likes them.
Art is normally like that, but this is a bit too much. Honestly, I don't even know if Ko Hun's drawing is good. I know that people who like Ko Huns paintings will deny it.
Freedom of thought is different from denying others' thoughts are different.
No, Im not denying it. I don't like his drawings. Can't I say anything? Don't you have to accept criticism when you do sothing like that? I'm saying this because you touch my feelings.
Why do you react so sensitively, when others react to what you said? Isn't it because your thoughts are being denied?
When I looked up an Internet article, my image seems to have hardened to so extent.
There are so many modern expressions calling young Van Gogh, perhaps because of [Sunflowers], [guests], and [frost wheat fields].
For this reason, so criticize as a child who imitates Van Gogh, others cheer on, and others thank saying it's a "life work."
Either way, I feel happy as if I feel the "Vincent" inside , but I feel a long way to go.
Thanks to modern culture, Koreanization, and various knowledge and emotions that I felt while traveling around Europe, I thought I had changed and developed a lot, but there is still a long way to go.
I want to show a different side of at this Whitney Biennale.
The use of oil pastels is based on that will.
The oil pastel was also a new thing I learned.
I colored it and rubbed it like I was painting an oil painting.
I can express it in a lump with my fingers, and when I use a brush, I get a different texture from oil paint.
What I like the most is that I don't have to wait until it dries.
If I apply a colored pencil after applying a suitable background color, the paint will peel off and color it well.
Mixing colors is no match for paint, but if I use lted oil pastels like paint, it is also unique.
It is less viscous than oil paint, so the detailed expression is smooth.
I tried lting it with a dryer, but it was most convenient to microwave it.
While getting used to the oil pastel, I envisioned a work to be submitted to the Whitney Biennale.
This weekend, I was thinking about using a feature that is scratched more easily than oil paints.
I watched Newtube to cool down for a while.
As I searched for what to eat for tomorrow's snack, the video of baking pancakes stood out.
I wondered what it was because it was a video with more than 1 million views, and it was a video of drawing with pancake batter.
"What is this?"
While I was impressed with the video, Sihyeon's voice was heard.
Hello!
Haha. Welco, Sihyeon. Hun is in the studio."
I heard Grandpa and Sihyeon's voices from the living room.
When I turned my head, Sihyeon ca in with a cheerful face as bright as his voice.
"Hi, Hun!"
He cleared up the misunderstanding with his father, and when Park Hyunwoo apologized, he beca energetic, unlike his first impression.
Hi.
Look at this!
Sihyeon took two boxes out of his bag.
When I approached to see what it was, they were oil pastels.
"There are sixty colors!"
"Oh."
He squatted down and opened the plastic box to show off.
This is sothing to brag about.
The oil pastel, lying neatly like a rainbow, also had a unique color called gold and silver.
"Here. Take this !"
Sihyeon held out a box similar to the box he was holding.
What is this?
Gift! It's the sa thing as mine.
I got a precious gift out of the blue.
I had nothing to return, so I took out the chocolate pie I bought this morning.
I haven't eaten it yet, but I can't just take the give and sit back without giving anything.
"Do you want so?"
I tried to press down on my sorrow and offered a chocolate pie.
"I ate a lot of it, so let's eat sothing else. Daddy said I should eat only one sweet a day."
"Did he say your teeth will rot?"
"Yes. He said I should brush my teeth well."
Grandpa and Sihyeon's father feels the sa way about snacks.
Sihyeon was looking through the bag and flipped it over.
A pile of cookies fell.
You're supposed to eat only one a day. right.?
Hehehe.
Sihyeon laughed playfully and placed his index finger on his mouth.
It ans a secret.
"Daddy makes snacks at the company. I can get a lot if I ask them. It's a secret."
"This! This looks delicious!"
Sihyeon showed a small paper box.
The na of the snack was Whale Chip.
Whale?
Yes, I wanted to try it.
Sihyeon tore the box open and spilled the cookies.
It is a snack shaped like a shark, crab, whale, and starfish.
"Does this taste like a shark?"
"Uh It says bulgogi(Korean BBQ Beef).
I painted all morning and wanted to eat snacks that exceeded the daily limit, so I washed my hands and sat down.
It is said to taste like bulgogi, but it has a much stronger scent than the actual bulgogi taste.
What were you doing Hun?
I was preparing for the Whitney Biennale.
What's Whitney Biennale?
"An art festival held every two years in New York. It starts on April 21."
Is it an exhibition?
NOD
"This is tasty. The crunchy texture is good, and how did they make this decadent taste?"
It must be popular since it's in various shapes.
Sihyeon was searching for what the Whitney Biennale is.
I decided to go on May 1st.
Huh?
Sihyeon was surprised.
"How long will you be away?"
"About two weeks?" While I'm at it, I'm going to et director Christine Nolan."
Since Arica is far away, it is better to take care of everything as much as possible when I go there.
"Then.Can't we see each other for two weeks?"
"No."
Sihyeon's sullen face brightened.
"Then?"
"I'll play until today. I have to draw a picture to submit. I'm busy starting tomorrow."
Sihyeon doesn't bother .
However, I want to concentrate as much as I can because Ill be submitting to the world's best art festival.
Sihyeon murmured with his droopy shoulders.
"Yeah It must be hard. Good luck."
He folded his fingers and counted the days, and as if he was shocked that he couldn't see for four weeks, he didn't even eat the whale chips.
"We can see each other at school."
"Un."
Sihyeons eyes shone brightly while looking up an English article about the Whitney Biennale.
Three million?
Yes.
Four months, but it's certainly a huge number.
Sihyeon, who was looking at the photo related to "the world's largest art festival" looked up.
"I want to go too. "
"It's a waste to just see it for a day."
"But I'm curious."
