For in- and out-door exhibition in Korea in the future
The Korea Post publishes works of noted sculptors of the world
The Korea Post publishes the works of noted sculptors of the different countries of the world in a continuing program for their introduction to the art lovers and collectors in Korea and around the world. The sculptural workers are presented in the alphabetical order of the names of the countries represented by the artists.
In the current (October 2011) issue we have on display the works we have so far received, one from each artist for space reasons. Additional works submitted will be published in the future depending on the basis of space availability.
We have received the website addresses of noted sculptors of a number of other countries. However, we are unable to publish them as we accommodate only the ones offered directly by the artist themselves after their selection of their own works.
After publication of the representative works by The Korea Post for a set period of time, we are planning to arrange their exhibition in Korea in cooperation with the art galleries and open-air sculpture parks across the country--depending on the size of the works .
So far, the following sculptors have submitted their entries and resumes:
