Hoam Museum of Art will present “Nicolas Party: Dust”, the first solo exhibition in Korea by Swiss-born contemporary artist Nicolas Party, one of the most prominent contemporary artists working today, from August 31 to January 19 next year.
 
One of the exhibitions to watch during the Frieze Seoul fair, “Nicolas Party: Dust,” showcases the work of Nicolas Party, who has garnered global attention for his unique figurative paintings and large-scale pastel murals that challenge conventions of representation in the history of art.
 
The exhibition will center on the theme of longevity and extinction of nature, civilization, and both human and non-human species. The theme, while resonating with the environment of Hoam where nature and culture coexist in close harmony, is intriguingly linked with the inherent transience of pastels.
 
The exhibition will present more than 80 works including five pastel murals drawn directly on the museum’s lobby and gallery walls, numerous landscapes, still lifes, portraits, sculptures, and a collection of traditional Korean art, creating an immersive environment for the visitors.
