Description
A definitive overview of the newest generation of Korean artists
This generously illustrated volume surveys the most talented artists to emerge from South Korea's burgeoning art scene in the past decade. The 25 artists introduced in this book collectively foreground the facets of contemporary Korean culture that have enabled the country's cultural exports to resonate so strongly worldwide. Comprising a representative cross-section of artists at the forefront of a generational shift in Korean art, this book brings readers up to speed on one of the most exciting and least understood segments of the art market today.

Inside, expansive full-color presentations of each artist's oeuvre are accompanied by concise and approachable texts situating their artworks amid the global contemporary art conversation. Two newly commissioned essays offer deeper analysis of the social and cultural changes experienced by these artists during their formative years.
Artists include: Hejum B?, Jungki Beak, Haneyl Choi, Yun Choi, Heemin Chung, Soyoung Chung, Jongwan Jang, Hyunsun Jeon, Sojung Jun, Suki Seokyeong Kang, Ayoung Kim, Dew Kim, Heecheon Kim, Kyoungtae Kim, Seeun Kim, Sylbee Kim, Eunsae Lee, Eunsil Lee, Heejoon Lee, Kang Seung Lee, Woosung Lee, GaHee Park, Gwangsoo Park, Min Jung Song, Hyangro Yoon.
