South Korea’s first major LGBTQ exhibition gives voice to queer artists

The Art Sonje Centre in Seoul has launched "Spectrosynthesis Seoul," the first large-scale exhibition in South Korea dedicated to LGBTQ themes and queer artists. Featuring works by 74 artists and artist groups, the project was initiated by Patrick Sun of the Sunpride Foundation and curated by Sun-jung Kim and Yong-woo Lee. The exhibition marks a significant cultural milestone in a country often characterized by its rigid social traditions and conservative values.
