An exhibition on Korean contemporary art, titled Take ( ) at Face Value is currently being held at the Korean Cultural Centre in Sydney.


Two exhibitions featuring contemporary Korean arts showcasing a dynamic array of creative works of the country are currently being held in Sydney.

It would be a rare and great opportunity to witness works from established contemporary Korean artists that have had limited exposure in the Australian art scene.

Take (  ) at Face Value explores various aspects of modern Korean society through formats of contemporary art underpinning the stereotypes and biases that evolve around Korean society today.
