[News] Avant-garde exhibit ‘Only the Young’ explores artistic rebellion of Korea’s youth

Whether half a century ago or today, the spirit of youth lives on in the Hammer Museum’s latest exhibit.

 

“Only the Young: Experimental Art in Korea, 1960s–1970s” has made its way from Seoul’s National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art to Manhattan’s Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and now, Westwood’s Hammer Museum. The exhibition showcases an era of avant-garde art that emerged following the Korean War. With nearly 80 works in a medley of mediums, “Only the Young” will explore the artistic rebellion of Korea’s youth until it leaves the Hammer on May 12.
