Korea and Japan to Collaborate on Pavilions at Venice Biennale

Arts Council Korea has revealed the program for its national pavilion at the 2026 Venice Biennale. Curated by Binna Choi and titled "Liberation Space: Fortress/Nest," the exhibition will feature artists Goen Choi and Hyeree Ro, exploring the historical period between the end of Japanese colonial rule and the establishment of separate Korean governments. A key feature is artist Goen Choi's work *Meridian*, which will physically extend copper pipes from the Korean Pavilion into the adjacent Japanese Pavilion, marking the first formal collaboration between the two nations' presentations at the Biennale.

Japanese artist Yuko Mohri has gained international acclaim for her kinetic, sound-based installations that utilize decaying organic matter and found objects to create unpredictable ecosystems. Her recent presentation at the 2024 Venice Biennale's Japanese Pavilion featured sculptures powered by the electrical currents of decomposing fruit and water systems that embraced the pavilion's porous architecture, even during torrential rain.
