Korean Contemporary Art refers to the modern artistic expressions emerging from South Korea, particularly since the late 20th century. This movement encompasses various mediums, including painting, sculpture, installation, and digital art, often reflecting the rapid social and technological changes in the country. Artists like Nam June Paik, known as the father of video art, have played a significant role in shaping this vibrant scene. The themes in Korean Contemporary Art often explore identity, history, and cultural heritage, blending traditional elements with modern techniques. Exhibitions in spaces like the Leeum, Samsung Museum of Art and the Seoul Museum of Art showcase the diversity and innovation of these artists, making it a dynamic part of the global art landscape.
