Jo Seub was born in 1975 in South Korea. His photograph work has received the high appraisal by satirizing the life of people who live social circumstances and there sarcastically and comically. He won "13th the prize of today young artists" of South Korea in 2005. And, he was invited to the 3rd Fukuoka Asian art triennale in Japan. And, he is exhibiting the work that stays by Tokyo wonder site Aoyama as a member of artist unit JNP in 2007 and is produced in the Gwangju Biennale. In this exhibition that becomes the first private exhibition in Japan for him, he plans to exhibit "Container series" of the latest work. The people including him make an irrational, solemn spectacle. It is to become a humorous mirror that starts watching my appearance for us.
