Mind’s Eye at the Guggenheim – Experimental Art in Korea

October 16, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm

Free

The Guggenheim is continuing to celebrate the ideas, people, and art at the core of its mission by offering virtual and in-person Mind’s Eye programming for participants who are blind or have low vision. This program features the current exhibition Only the Young: Experimental Art in Korea, 1960s–1970s.

This exhibition centers a network of key artists who, in the pivotal decades following the Korean War, pushed boundaries in response to a rapidly changing socioeconomic and political landscape. Visitors encounter a variety of mediums in the show including painting, sculpture, photography, video, and installation. Join us in exploring an era of remarkable transformation in South Korea during this in-person program at the museum.

This month’s Mind’s Eye programming will be led by artist and educator Maya Jeffereis through verbal description and conversation.
