Fukuoka Asian Art Museum (Fukuoka, Japan)
The museum champions emerging artists and utilizes diverse mediums like paintings, sculptures, installations, and video art.
Cho Duckhyun is an artist who incorporates drawings enlarged from old portrait pictures within black box-like structures, and reveals unknown aspects of modern and contemporary Korean history as if opening old trunks. One of the two photographs used in this work is a picture of a young Japanese girl who died mad after losing her lover at war and is based on a story the artist heard from an immigrant of Japanese descent whom he met in Brazil. The other is a photograph of a Korean youth, who was conscripted as a Japanese soldier under Japan
