The Korean Cultural Center Los Angeles (KCCLA), headed by Director Wijin Park, presents a virtual walk-through of a retrospective exhibition of the visionary artist Nam June Paik as the third segment of its “Korean Art in America” video series. The series allows global viewers to appreciate Korean exhibitions at major US museums from the comfort of their own homes by making offline cultural platforms and events available online through YouTube, Facebook, and the KCCLA website. The retrospective Nam June Paik, held at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) from May 8 to October 3, 2021, was the first exhibition of Paik’s work in the Western United States and saw great success.

The virtual walk-through features the 200-odd works by Paik shown at the retrospective as well as interviews with the two SFMOMA curators who organized the exhibition, Rudolf Frieling, curator of media arts, and Andrea Nitsche-Krupp, assistant curator of media arts. As they lead the virtual tour, they provide interesting insights on Paik’s works.

The KCCLA will continue to expand its “Korean Art in America” series, introducing Korean art exhibition halls, Korean artifacts, and more exhibitions at major US museums via its website and social media accounts such as YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.
