Hyunbul News Coverage — Shin Jang-sik Solo Exhibition "Asking the Way on the Road"
Hyunbul News (September 15, 2017) coverage of Shin Jang-sik's solo exhibition "Asking the Way on the Road" (September 20–26, 2017, Gallery DOS, Seoul). The exhibition weaves the artist's recurring motifs—Arirang, Mt. Geumgang, Buddhist imagery, journeys into the world, COSMOS, candlelight, and Arirang once again—under the unifying theme of "the Road." Featured works mentioned include Arirang, Light of Okryudong, Samadhi (2014), The Road to Jangche No. 3, and Candles Sparkle Like Stars in the Night Sky (2016). The artist also recalls that his Buddhist subject matter began in 2007 after encountering the Myogilsang Buddha statue in inner Mt. Geumgang.
