A New, Monthly Series of Gallery Talk Programs

May 24 - November 16, 2007

Exhibiting Korea, a new monthly series of presentations on the fine arts, film, fashion and photograph of the Korean Peninsula, is debuting in April 2007. Series programs will address contemporary trends in cultural expression in Korea, and take audiences back to important movements they might have overlooked. These gallery talks, given by top experts, critics and artists, will put the colors and shapes of modern Korea on display — and explain the cultural and historical contexts behind them. Please join us.
