English to Korean: Creating new images of beauty

Creating new images of beauty

Art is communication and, in the context, fashion is art, British fashion and documentary photographer Nick Knight said on Wednesday.
He was in a preview of his first-ever solo exhibition in Korea, which kicks off today at the Daelim Museum west of Gyeongbok Palace in central Seoul.

The show, titled "Nick Knight: Image" consists of 110 pieces by the 58-year-old artist.
They encompass his very early black-and-white straight photos of skinheads and their subculture in the late 1970s; his digitally-modified fashion photography in the 1990s; and his latest moving images and films about fashion.
These serve to highlight his diverse oeuvre.

Knight, famous for collaborations with major fashion designers such as Alexander McQueen and John Galliano, is "the first generation of photographer to combine photography with digital graphics technology," according to the museum's press release.

The fourth section of the exhibition, "Painting & Politics¡" include his early works that he digitally modified for surrealistic and futuristic effects.
Among them is "Devon Aoki for Alexander McQueen¡"(1997), an iconic fashion photograph for the digital era.
The exhibition is divided into six sections in total.
Regarding the first section that features his "Skinheads¡" series, Knight explained that he was young at that time and wanted to push himself to the extreme, so he was fascinated by the skinheads' culture.
He later grew away from the culture, as it became more political - more related to fascism.

"Though the culture of skinheads was against being fashionable at that time, their styles were another kind of fashion," he said.
"It interested me at that time, as they made a statement through the fashion."

Although the exhibit includes several experimental flower still lifes that stand between photography and painting and a shocking portrait of a dead, skinned monkey, all the others photos on view feature humans, regardless of whether they are portraits or fashion campaigns.

Regarding it, Knight said what is important in his works is "emotional connection."

"When you take pictures of humans, you are not dealing with their outside - their physicalities such as the forms of their arms or legs," he said.
"Instead, you are dealing with what they have in their inner sides.
It's about emotional connections."

미의 새로운 이미지는 창조하는 것이다

수요일에 영국 출신의 패션 포토그래퍼이자, 다큐멘터리 포토그래퍼 닉 나이트는 아트는 예술은 소통이자, 같은 맥락에서 패션은 예술이라 했다.
그는 서울 중심부 경복궁 서쪽에 위치한 대림 미술관에서 오늘부터 시작한 국내에서 가지는 생애 첫 개인전의 프리뷰를 진행했다.

“닉 나이트: 거침없이 아름답게”라는 타이틀로, 58세 아티스트의 110여 개의 작품이 전시된다.
1970년대 후반의 스킨헤드와 그들의 서브컬처를 담은 초창기 정통 흑백 사진들, 1990년대 디지털 방식으로 촬영한 패션 사진 기법들과 최근에 찍은 패션 영상과 영화들까지 아우른다.
이번 전시회는 그의 다양한 작품들을 돋보이게 한다.

유명 패션 디자이너 알렉산더 맥퀸과 존 갈리아노와 협업한 것으로도 유명한 나이트는 “디지털 그래픽 기술과 사진 기법을 결합한 1세대 포토그래퍼”로 미술관 팜플렛에 소개된다.

전시회의 4번째 섹션인 “그림 & 정치”에는 초현실주의와 초현대적인 영향을 받아 디지털 방식으로 촬영한 초기 작품들도 포함된다.
그 작품들 중에는 디지털 시대의 상징적인 패션 사진인 '알렉산더 맥퀸의 데본 아오키'(1997)도 있다.
전시회는 총 6개의 섹션으로 나뉘어 있다.
“스킨헤드” 시리즈가 특징인 첫 번째 섹션에 대해서, 그는 그 당시 젊었을 때 자신을 극도로 몰아붙이고 싶어 했고, 그래서 스킨헤드 문화에 매료되었다고 했다.
그 이후로 그는 정치적으로 성장했고, 점점 더 파시즘에 물들었다.

“당시 스킨헤드 문화는 유행에 뒤떨어진 것이었지만, 그들의 스타일은 일종의 패션이었다.”라고 말했다.
“그들이 그 패션을 통해 성명을 발표했기 때문에 나는 그 당시에 관심이 있었다.”

비록 이 전시회는 몇 안되는 사진과 회화 사이에 피어있는 실험적인 꽃과 죽어서 가죽이 벗겨진 원숭이의 충격적인 초상화, 그리고 초상화나 패션 캠페인에 상관없이 다른 모든 사진들은 인간의 특성을 담고 있다.

이에 대해, 나이트는 그의 작품에서 가장 중요한 것은 “정서적 교감”이라고 했다.

“당신은 사람을 찍을 때, 모델의 팔이나 다리 같은 신체적인 바깥 부분을 신경 쓰지 않는다”
“대신에 모델의 내면에 집중한다. 그게 정서적 교감이다.”
