Bang Geual Han, who earned her MFA from Alfred University in 2005, is exhibiting her work in the Bronx Museum, 1040 Grand Concourse, Bronx. The title of the exhibit: “If You Grind the Threshold of Three Other Houses.”
The Bronx Museum describes the solo exhibit and Han work as “Working across a diverse array of media forms and processes, from weaving to artificial intelligence. …(Han) engages with shifting understandings of public and private territories in relation to language, gender and body. Through playful and jarring juxtapositions and layering, Han creates material manifestations of the reverberating desires and libidinal investments at work within the legal documents, government memoranda, and written and spoken words of figures in positions of power, including Justice Brett Kavanaugh, Harvey Weinstein, and Congressman Henry J. Hyde.”
Born and raised in Seoul, Korea, Han’s work has been shown in venues including: A.I.R. Gallery, The Bronx Museum of the Arts; Cuchifritos Gallery, DOOSAN Gallery New York; NURTUREart, and Queens Museum in New York City. Han is the recipient of a number of artist residencies and fellowships including The Block Gallery Artist Residency and the Artist in the Marketplace (AIM) program at the Bronx Museum of the Arts.
