The exhibition investigates South Korea’s contemporary art scene through the medium of video art. Combining technological experimentation with an impelling narrative drive, a new generation of artists is engaging with themes that gravitate around identity, memory and social transformation, in a country poised between tradition and hyper-modernity.

Curated by Francesca Benini and Je Yun Moon (former Deputy Director of the Art Sonje Center, Seoul). Curatorial assistance: Emma Pagani
