YIM TAE KYU

Korean contemporary art is not a trend. It is the product of a specific and irreducible national experience — Han, Gwangju, the DMZ, the speed of modernisation — that is now being recognised by the world's most important institutions at exactly the moment the global art market is hungry for it. Yim Tae Kyu has been painting the Marginal Man on hanji paper with Indian ink and cartoon precision for years. Mire Lee just filled the Tate Modern Turbine Hall. The world caught up last. The artists were already there.
