Solbi's true heart toward art (real name Solbi) eventually succeeded in overturning public prejudice. Solbi, who shouted "our own Choices are always right," is why he is more looking forward to his next step as an artist to come.
Solbi was recently honored with the Grand prize, the Grand prize, at the 2021 Barcelona International Art Award (The Premier International d'Art de Barcelona) at the Barcelona International Frieze Art Fair (FIABCN) (hereinafter referred to as the "PIAB21").
The panel's One Robert Emos said: "I received a lot of votes from the panel's Ones in terms of dynamic expressiveness and originality; it's The Artist who showed the most discriminatory aspect. After watching the works of Solbi, I saw the originality that I could not see from other writers and selected it. "
Solbi, who is recognized not only in Korea but also overseas and is leading the World of Korean art, was not recognized by many people from the beginning. Rather, he became a Grand prize of persecution because he was an entertainer.
In fact, in May, Hongdae artist appeared in Dailymotion 'Jung Young-jin Choi Wook's Maebul Show' and said, "I hOnestly do not know what Solbi is doing. It is abstract expressionism to say well because it uses a lot of paint, but it was about middle and high school students until 2020. Before appearing in Dailymotion, I asked about 10 artists and curators about Solbi, but there were overwhelmingly negative opinions. "In June, he also mentiOned Solbi's selection as the" Artist of the Month "announced by the Italian culture and arts group ITS LIQUID GROUP, saying," I think there is a problem. "
After that, various opinions were exchanged, but it is true that the gaze on 'The Artist' Solbi was generally negative. It was because it did not make sense to discuss art without leaving the art school.
However, "art can not be objective because it feels that it is not evaluated with judgment criteria. As Goh Hye-sun said, "Art is not something that anyOne can do." Solbi succeeded in persuading World beyond Korea as One of the authenticity for art. As a result, he proved himself right.
After the Awards, Solbi also revealed his feelings directly through Instagram on the 9th. "This was a brutal and brutal year personally," Solbi said. "As God gives carrots and whips, hardship and hope have been repeated. Others have said that to me: Why do you go back when there is a comfortable path? No matter what route Choices, it is not easy. I am accustomed to finding stability in instability, so I do not get caught up in such a word anymore. I walked my way and I was awarded an art prize in Spain. "
He said, "Yes, our own Choices are always right." He declared that he would be all in art without believing in his Choices alOne without being around. As the result shows, the other people’s points are no longer critical, but only jealousy and jealousy, and Solbi’s endless possibilities as an artist are now being drawn to the future.
