This catalogue is a reconstruction of the physical space of the exhibition <MEDIASCAPE, à pas de NAM JUNE PAIK>, and also a road map of the conceptual space of Paikian mediascape. In the first chapter to open up your horizons, you will explore the vision and thought of Nam June Paik, the very basis of this exhibition, by taking a look at Paik’s works shown on the first floor of the Nam June Paik Art Center. Then, bearing in mind seven key themes, you will navigate the second floor where the works of other artists are shown. Have a taste of three opening performances, and you will come into the pages of each artist, which consist of the descriptions of their works featured in the exhibition, and their own writings on Paik and the mediascape. Following Paik’s steps, you will at last be given an opportunity to reflect on your own steps towards the mediascape to live out beyond this exhibition.
