Korean Arts Festival
Organized by Assistant Professor of Fine Arts Hee Sook Kim and Associate Professor of East Asian Studies Hank Glassman, the Korean Arts Festival brings to Haverford College traditional as well as contemporary Korean art, music, and performance.
In and With: Contemporary Korean Art
Curated by Haverford College Assistant Professor of Printmaking Hee Sook Kim, In and With: Contemporary Korean Art pairs the work of three artists living and working in Korea with that of two Korean nationals currently residing in the United States. In paintings, prints, and mixed-media works, Hee Sook Kim, Juri Kim, Oh Su Fan, Suh Yong Sun, and Yoo Bong Sang explore how proximity to their cultural heritage and distance from it variously inform their artistic practice.
