- Curator's comments
- Portal 2000:
Some traditional Korean crafts are preserved under the Cultural Assets system, while more contemporary-style crafts are produced in many media by a variety of craftsmen, some of whom are professors at well-known universities such as Hongik and Seoul National. This is Kim Sung-soo's case, who is working in remarkable and innovative ways to produce contemporary works.
