I just listened to the fabulous 2014 interview with Joan Kee on the history of contemporary art in Korea. Contemporary Korean Art: Tansaekhwa and the Urgency of Method (University of Minnesota Press, 2013). I collect Tansaekwa and yet has missed this until now. Excellent thank you!
Love this show. I particularly liked the interview with Jessica Helfand about her book.

I’m looking forward to more episodes!!
