The Korean Cultural Center in Hungary opened its new temporary exhibition on 3 April which introduces the representative works of twelve Korean photographers, sheds light on the historical scene in Korean contemporary photography which has been continuously converging and diverging since its beginning in the late 1980s. The exhibition ‘Korean Contemporary Photography: Insights into Nature and Humanity’ is kaleidoscopic as it embraces the historical flow of Korean photography from the late 1980s to the early 2010s and captures the present moment at the same time. The overall scene of Korean contemporary photography is presented through the individual achievement of twelve artists while the dynamic flow of change and stillness is also outlined.
On 4 April, an artist talk with Min Byunghun, Oh Heinkuhn, Lee Sunmin, Park Hyunggeun, Han Sungpil, Lee Jeonglok, Area Park, Kim Seunggu, Jung Jihyun and curator Seok Jaehyun was organized. On 5 April, Seok Jaehyun, the curator of the exhibition participated at a portfolio review organized by Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design Budapest.
