L’ART POUR L’ART COLLECTIONS: Contemporary Vid L’ART POUR L’ART COLLECTIONS: Contemporary Video-based Art

Albert Young Choi’s L’art pour l’art presents a captivating series of video-based artworks that redefine visual storytelling through the innovative repurposing of found media. Rooted in the philosophy of “art for art’s sake,” these works transcend conventional narratives to explore moving images’ aesthetic and conceptual possibilities. Each piece weaves light, texture, and rhythm elements with the raw authenticity of fragmented media, challenging perceptions of beauty and meaning. By deconstructing and recontextualizing original sources, Choi delves into the tension between intentionality and chance, inviting viewers to reflect on the interplay between personal interpretation and collective memory. The series offers an immersive and contemplative experience, inspiring profound dialogue on the evolving relationships between art, media, and culture.

Artist’s Statement
In my work, I strive to explore the complex interplay between found media and the myriad interpretations it invites. My collection, “L’art Pour L’art,” embodies the philosophy of Art for Art’s Sake, seeking to transcend conventional storytelling methods and forge a new path in visual expression. Each piece is a testament to the beauty of fragments—each clip, image, and sound carrying its own narrative yet waiting to be recontextualized.

My practice centers around the aesthetic and conceptual potentials of moving images. By embracing the raw authenticity of these materials, I challenge traditional notions of beauty and meaning and invite viewers to participate in a dialogue about perception and interpretation. I deliberately incorporate light, texture, and rhythm elements, creating a sensory experience that evokes emotion and reflection.

At the heart of my work lies exploring the tension between intention and chance. As I deconstruct and reassemble these media fragments, I encourage viewers to ponder their relationships to memory and experience. What stories do we impose on seemingly random moments? How does our lens shape our understanding of a collective narrative?

Dr. Choi's research focused on creating a standard Dr. Choi's research focused on creating a standardized design for street names and building number signs, ensuring clarity and usability. His system emphasized reducing wayfinding time, urban congestion, and logistics inefficiencies while promoting aesthetic harmony. These improvements not only streamlined navigation for residents and visitors but also underscored the practical benefits of design in urban planning.

Furthermore, Dr. Choi integrated elements of Korean cultural aesthetics into his designs, reflecting the country’s unique heritage and identity. His designs balanced functionality and artistic expression by embedding "Korean beauty and sensibility" into the visual framework. This approach enhanced the practical utility of the signs and contributed to Korea’s national branding efforts, fostering a distinctive visual identity.

The success of this initiative has had a lasting impact on South Korea’s urban environments. Beyond improving day-to-day navigation, the design overhaul served as a case study of how thoughtful design interventions can address practical issues while simultaneously enhancing a nation’s cultural and aesthetic presence on the global stage. Dr. Choi’s contributions continue to be celebrated as a blend of strategic thinking and cultural artistry, providing a model for other nations facing similar challenges.

Typo-Image: Text is Always Part of Other Texts; Th Typo-Image: Text is Always Part of Other Texts; There is Never Pure Text

Albert Young Choi developed a methodology called 'Typo-Image,' which combines typography and imagery under the principle that "text is always part of different texts and never exists as pure text." Through the 'Typo-Image' approach, students learn about and explore 'Deconstruction,' a form of analytical critique introduced by Jacques Derrida, a prominent French philosopher of the 20th century. This process involves breaking down and revealing the underlying meanings, biases, and assumptions that shape how a text relates to what it describes.

One significant aspect of typography is its ability to convey diverse meanings. Designers recognize that typography's purpose is often inconsistent and ever-changing, much like the fluidity of letterforms and negative spaces. Image-like typography (Typo-Image) is particularly referential, especially when visuals engage with creativity and re-appropriation. In our increasingly communication-driven society, it is more important than ever to understand that typography holds immense potential for meaning and interpretation.

This presentation occurred at TypeCon 2021, a virtual event held from October 21st to 24th, 2021.
