9 December 2007 Events news

Last year saw the first of what might be turning into an annual event: a showing of young Korean artists working in London, at the Jerwood Space in Southwark, behind Tate Modern.
LKL found out about last year’s show, Still Dynamics, very much at the last minute, but we still provided some coverage here. This year, [...]

I happened to meet artist Francesca Cho at the Jerwood gallery yesterday lunchtime. Korean-born, but now based in London, she is the more established artist among the exhibitors in the Still Dynamics show, which closes today.

Still Dynamics: The Korean Contemporary Art Show
The Jerwood Space, 14-20 December
Review by Beccy Kennedy
The serene setting of the Jerwood Space provides the perfect offset for the vivid works of eleven Korean artists. With the exception of Kira Kim’s light installation, I Love U, and Sangjun Roh’s miniature, cardboard people, the works are surprisingly painterly for [...]

Secret Korean contemporary art show now on

16 December 2006 Events news

With apologies for the late notice, I’ve just heard about another Korean contemporary art show. Known to but a few, and by word of mouth only it seems. Even one of the artists wouldn’t tell me about it. This is real inside-track stuff.
It finishes on 21 December, and is on at the Jerwood Space in [...]
