The title of the exhibition, Utopia Saved, is meant to allude to the artist’s complicated approach to ideas concerning utopia as she engages with utopian modernism with empathy and originality, critique and imagination. Utopia Saved invites you to experience the (anti)utopian world of Lee Bul. We hope it will help prove that she is neither a utopianist nor a dystopianist, but a genuine creator who is able to take a leap of imagination into anywhere.
