A commemorative plaque honoring artist Francis Bacon has been unveiled in Paris, installed by the City of Paris at the studio apartment near the Place des Vosges where Bacon lived and worked from 1974 to 1987.

Jewyo Rhii: ‘If you don’t die today, you get another opportunity to live’

Jewyo Rhii, a Seoul-born artist from the first generation to come of age during South Korea's dramatic political shifts in the 1980s, has been selected for this year's Korean Artists Today project. Her work, which began as personal explorations of misplacement and survival using ephemeral materials and found objects, evolved around ten years ago into collaborative projects like Love Your Depot (2019), a series of storage-unit-like installations that question the lifespan of artworks. Rhii's practice includes object-oriented performance pieces such as Ten Years Please (2007-17) and Lie on the Han River (2003-06), and she has shown at institutions including the Queens Museum, the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art (MMCA) in Seoul, and the Venice Biennale.
