And there will be speaks about Korea and Asian art scene too in the fair (V International Forum for Contemporanian Art Experts).
It look amazing. Does anyone know how long the galleries will display the exhibitions, especially the Koream galleries? I don’t think I can make the actual week in Feb!
Hi Ken
You’ve got to go!!! I’m counting on you to write some reviews!
I know nothing more than what’s in the press releases that I pasted here. I think ARCO itself is pretty time-limited, but some of the shows in the special events in my first post on this go on much longer. Why not ask Jiyoon Lee when you see her at Asia House on 22 Jan? She’s pretty well plugged in to the expo I think.
