Thirteen Korean Writers Filmed in Their Homes for 1995 Portrait Series
In June 1995, a filmmaker was commissioned to create a series of in-situ portraits of thirteen Korean writers, despite having no prior connection to Korean literary circles beyond a well-known passion for Nam June Paik. The project, titled "Corée : Ecrivains coréens : portraits in situ," was published in artpress in October 1996. The documentary-style portraits capture the writers in their own homes, offering intimate glimpses into their lives and creative environments.
