Beginning on November 11, the KONNECT ASEAN Contemporary Print Show: Arise, hosted jointly by the ACH and the ASEAN Foundation, will showcase various print-inspired artworks by young contemporary artists from Korea and the 10 ASEAN countries. Through these artworks, which each embody the personal experiences and philosophy of their creator, viewers will have an up-close encounter with the talent, thoughts, and dreams of young artists that are shared across national borders. Furthermore, a workshop scheduled for January 2022 in conjunction with this exhibition will provide a more nuanced understanding of contemporary prints for the general public. Further information on the workshop will soon be made available through the ACH’s website (www.ach.or.kr).

The exhibition is being offered as part of KONNECT ASEAN, an ASEAN-ROK Exchange project sponsored by the ASEAN-ROK Cooperation Fund.
