[Exhibition/GROUNDSEESAW Korea Tour]The Anonymous Project Busan

[Exhibition Overview] "Perhaps photography is the most tender function among the technologies developed by humankind." Recognized as one of the most meaningful and unique amateur photography collections in the world, this project features 800,000 vintage color film slides taken by unknown photographers from the 1940s to the 1980s. Discover the tender, heartfelt moments captured by family, friends, and lovers—each image filled with the desire to eternally remember those precious instances. [Exhibition Preview] THEME 1. A Story Begins Every photo tells a story. This section introduces the beginning of The Anonymous Project, showcasing moments when people pressed the shutter to capture their personal histories and the curious first glimpses of life through a newborn’s eyes. These images set the stage for the exhibition’s narrative. THEME 2. Before the Instagram Era Imagine a world without Instagram. During the heyday of 35mm color film, photographs provided a unique glimpse into the lifestyles of the time. Let’s journey back to an era when people shared happiness by exchanging film. THEME 3. The Moments We Paused This project aims to do more than evoke nostalgia. By presenting ordinary scenes that transcend time and place, it reveals how warmly interconnected our lives are. What moments would you capture if you paused and pressed the shutter today?
