Street Food Lighting at the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Seoul.
Jorge Mañes Rubio is in Seoul to participate in ‘Activating the City: Urban Gastronomy’, a new exhibition at the MMCA, the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art. Rubio will be presenting his work ‘Street Food Lighting’ and kicking off the exhibition with an open discussion together with curator Bora Hong and chef Ara Ahn. ‘Activating the City: Urban Gastronomy’ includes the work of several artists, designers and activists such as Gordon Matta-Clark, Bonnie Ora Sherk and Jongbuhm Kim. The exhibition imagines design methodology as a device to form relationships among people in consideration of how we shall live, rather than producing new objects or work.
‘Activating the City: Urban Gastronomy’ opens today and will be running till 19 March 2017. Opening discussion will take place on Wednesday 7 December at 18:30. For more info visit MMCA.
