ArtReview's 2025 Korea Supplement Explores Seoul's Art Scene and Artist-Gallerist Dynamics

In its September 2025 issue, ArtReview has launched a free supplement focusing on contemporary Korean art, with support from the Korea Arts Management Service (KAMS), part of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism. This collaborative effort delves into Seoul's emergence as a key player in the global art scene, emphasizing the ties between artists and galleries in both Seoul and Busan. It includes four new works by Sun Young Oh, Hong Jin-hwon, YOUNG-HAE CHANG HEAVY INDUSTRIES, and Cha Ji Ryang, reflecting Korea's current artistic trends. The cover artwork, 나/너 (na: me / neo: you) by Oh, explores themes of language and social interactions, while the supplement examines how urban environments and community ties fuel creativity, providing insights into Korea's dynamic art world.
