Kim Young-Hee – Collector’s Edition

Asian art is becoming more and more popular, but only rarely does an artist manage to successfully combine the integration of Eastern traditions and values with modern life and zeitgeist as wonderfully as the renowned Korean artist, Kim Young-Hee. A look at her works of art never ceases to amaze. Her latest works deal with the rapid changes of Korea in a even more ironic and universal manner.

Collector’s Edition
In addition to the book, a strictly limited edition of 100 signed and numbered C-Prints are released in a top-quality designed linen box as a collector’s edition. The coloured photographs, which have been selected for our edition from Kim Young-Hee’s works, display a playful and humorous light heartedness with a clear sense of optimism that is typical of the artist, and which is apparent in all of the artist’s work.

Kim Young-Hee
Kim Young-Hee, the sculptress born in Kyongju, Korea in 1944, received international recognition with her own distinctive sculptures made from mulberry paper, symbols of traditional Korea, its culture and its people. In her home country, Kim Young-Hee is counted among the most famous visual artists and also one of the most successful authors, whose novels achieve bestseller status in her country. She acquired this artistic reputation with 70 solo exhibitions worldwide. The works of Kim Young-Hee are constantly exhibited by the HYUNDAI gallery in Korea, as well as at many other international exhibitions. She has already managed to reach a wide, international audience (museums, large concerns and private collections). A Korean city and a large concern are presently planning a museum especially for her works of art. Her autobiography, based on her own novel, is currently being filmed in Korea. She has been living and working in Germany since 1981.
