L’art pour l’art Collections

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.
