Culture Flux: Korean Contemporary Art Now and in the Future
LeBasse Projects – Culver City, CA
2/9/11

LeBasse Projects is excited to host their first Panel Discussion that coincides with their ongoing exhibition of Korean Contemporary Art starting Wednesday, February 9th, 2011, 7:30-10pm.  CULTURE FLUX will examine key issues shaping the Korean contemporary art scene today and tomorrow: How do a growing Asian art market, a wired, web-savvy South Korea, and the recently internationalized contemporary art scene impact art work produced both within Korea and the Korean diaspora? How might such factors influence the creative process? How might they influence critical and collector evaluations of the work‹in the United States, Europe and Korea?

PANELISTS: Heidi Chang (PYO Gallery) Scarlet Cheng (art writer/critic, contributor to LA Times, Artillery magazine)John Souza (Former faculty at Otis/curator) Yeonju Sung (participating AHN-NYUNG | HELLO artist)

Moderators Jae Yang/Art-merge (art consultant/ curator) and Peter Frank (art critic) will utilize the AHN-NYUNG | HELLO and PAPERWORK exhibitions at LeBasse Projects as a starting point for Culture Flux: Korean Contemporary Art Now and in the Future.
