“This catalogue was published to commemoration of the inaugural Festival of the Nam June Paik Art Center that took place on October 9, 2008. NOW JUMP, the title of the Nam June Paik Festival, originates in the punch line from one of Aesop’s fables: ‘Hic Rhodus, Hic saltus!’ NOW JUMP is an appeal to not simply rely on past achievements: NOW is always the time to act and JUMP. This title is an invitation or call to action but also represents the ambition of the Nam June Paik Art Center to leap into the future through the NJP Festival. NOW JUMP is organized according to the concept of ‘Stations’. This notion simultaneously encompasses a state of stillness and of motion or anticipation of motion. In our everyday experience this can be the place where trains or buses regularly stop; a broadcasting station; a power station; a research institute; a studio; a local headquarters; a habitat; social status or a posture. For this festival four stations exist as concurrent initiatives, including exhibitions, performances, a platform to establish discourse, and the development of the NJP Art Center Prize. Station 4 gives the details of various workshops that took place in December 2008, including a research workshop by castillo/corrales, a collective of Paris-based artists.”
Nam June Paik Art Center, 2009. Four miniature perfect-bound booklets, held together by large obi strip. Some discoloration to wraps of booklets. Obi strip has a tear in it. Text in both English and Korean.
