pavilion at the giardini – ‘the homo species’ is the first solo exhibition of hyungkoo lee at the venice art biennale 2007. born and raised in korea, lee experienced the ‘undersized asian
male complex’ while he was studying in the USA. an asian man having internalized the notion of male-superiority is doomed to be frustrated when he comes face-to-face with this ‘bigger and
stronger’ caucasian counterpart. lee started to create ‘the objectuals series’ in 1999 with humble materials such as water-filled PET bottles and shooter glasses to visually enlarge parts of
his body. hyunkoo lee extends his concerns to fictitious bodies of cartoon characters by inventing their fossil bones in a quasi-archaeological way. ‘self portrait – H2’ image courtesy
hyungkoo lee, 2002 the artist points out an interesting way of overcoming the sense of cultural inferiority. lee wearing the helmet of ‘the objectuals series’ – video still image ©
