SoHyun Bae
An upcoming exhibit in Harrisburg will celebrate Korean culture locally and worldwide.
Market Square Presbyterian Church recently announced that Korean-born New York artist SoHyun Bae will display her painting series “The Four Bows” at the church, coinciding with the church’s 50th anniversary of its Korean congregation.
Bae will appear at the exhibit opening and reception on Sunday, April 14, from 12 to 1 p.m. in the church’s Geneva Hall on the fourth floor.
The church is offering free admission to the opening reception.
Bae was inspired to create “The Four Bows” based on elements of Korean culture and Italian culture, where she lived with her family for 20 years.
“…my desire is to get to the essence of things, the elemental, the essential,” said Bae, in a statement.
Bae’s art has been exhibited in galleries and museums around the world, including the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, the Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology at Harvard University, the Seoul Arts Center Hangaram Museum and the Museo Nacional di Visual Artes in Montevideo, Uruguay.
