Contemporary Korean Design | Online Preview

February 1 - February 28, 2010

R 20th Century presents Contemporary Korean Design, an exhibition featuring works by Byung-Hoon Choi, Hun-Chung Lee, Dae-Sup Kwon, Zong-Sun Bahk and Jin Jang.

The inaugural United States collaboration between R 20th Century and the renowned Gallery Seomi in Seoul, Korea, marks the New York debut for many of these artists and will showcase never-before-seen pieces. This extraordinary collection introduces a generation of artists whose work establishes a new visual vocabulary that combines venerated Korean aesthetic traditions, iconography and techniques with fresh, contemporary ideas and forms.

The exhibition runs March 2 - May 16, with an opening reception Monday, March 1, 6-8 pm at R Gallery.
