The Possibilities of Linear Expression

 

While introducing myriad linear expressions in contemporary art, this exhibition considers the endless possibilities of the line. Due to the rapid development of computer science, present-day art continues to expand into new areas of expression on a daily basis. At the same time, this development provides us with more opportunities to reexamine art from a historical perspective. In other words, the present sheds illuminates art of the past. While focusing on linear expressions in paintings and prints, this exhibition hopes to provide viewers with a chance to discover what has been already been accomplished in the rich and delicate world of art.
