BTS Joins Hans Ulrich Obrist's 'do it' Exhibition with Conceptual Art Instructions

The K-pop group BTS has contributed to curator Hans Ulrich Obrist's ongoing exhibition project 'do it (around the world)', which collects conceptual instructions from artists for potential artworks. Their submission emphasizes connection across boundaries, aligning with themes from their music, UN speeches, and previous art collaborations. Launched in 1993 in Paris with artists Christian Boltanski and Bertrand Lavier, the initiative now features over 400 participants including Yoko Ono, Louise Bourgeois, Tracey Emin, Olafur Eliasson, Virgil Abloh, and Arca. Recently revived post-pandemic, new instructions are added weekly to a Google Arts & Culture platform. BTS previously worked with artists like Antony Gormley, Ann Veronica Janssens, and Tomás Saraceno on global installations promoting 'love and care'.
