Last Chance to Visit: ‘Duett: Takis and Nam June Paik’ at White Cube Seoul⁠
⁠
‘Duett’ pairs the work of Takis and Nam June Paik for the first time, highlighting how these two great artistic innovators of the 20th century fused technology, science and art through autodidactic experimentation.⁠
⁠
In the exhibition’s accompanying essay, David Toop writes: ‘What was important for both artists was the integrity of ideas rather than technique. Both were provocateurs, working somewhere between science and shamanism.’⁠
⁠
‘Both artists shared an interest in Zen Buddhism; both looked up to John Cage, whose study of Zen and Daoism had opened a door to listening. Silence was a new way to think about music’, says David.⁠
⁠
📍 The exhibition is on view at White Cube Seoul until 5 June 2026.⁠
