Founded in the birthplace of Dansaekhwa, Daegu, Leeahn now has two spaces, with the second being in Seoul. While its roster includes Korean artists like of Tchunmo Nam and Lee Kun-Yong, the gallery also seeks to bring international works to the country, in particular zeitgeist kings such as Warhol, Hirst and Frank Stella.

 

This time at Art Busan, you can expect to see a bit of new-gen Dansawkhwa in the form of Nam’s meditative, forest-green Spring 18-11.
