Welcome to Art Spot Seoul!

Have you ever wondered what is going on in the contemporary art world in Seoul, but realized that information is hard to get since you don’t speak Korean? Art Spot Seoul is the page for you, with reviews, presentations of emerging artists, debates, interviews and all sorts of writing relating to the art scene in the dynamic capital of Korea.
As one of the mega-cities in the world, and the capital of a country with a turbulent and growing economy, Seoul has a lot to offer in regards of contemporary art. You not only have an art market that has been peaking for a while, but also many non-commercial art spaces around in the city. You will find information on the ongoing exhibitions and reviews on those that are up ore have passed. If you are curious about an artist who has been exhibiting here, we might have the information you need.
Or we might not… Art Spot Seoul is a project made with graduate and post-graduate students from Ewha Womans University. It is part of a course in writing art critique and criticism in English. When doing this, we could as well make the information accessible for a wider audience on the net. So we have to see how long this page will last.
Art Spot Seoul is organized in monthly archives and categories. There will also be tags, making it possible to search artists’ names and topics. Just click the latest month, and you will have the most recent writing there. Or you want to read the essays or reviews first? Then click the category you want.
This page is for you, and we hope you appreciate it!
