It includes renowned works such as Human Mask (2014) and Offspring (2018), as well as introducing new pieces co-commissioned with Pinault Collection – Punta della Dogana, where the exhibition debuted last year, also with support from Bottega Veneta.   Bottega Veneta has also designed outfits for the human carriers of the artwork Idiom.   Pierre Huyghe: Liminal  Leeum Museum of Art, Seoul  27 February – 6 July  #BOTTEGAVENETA
