'Expert Supporting Program' consists of inviting experts in visual art including critics, curators, artists and gallerists, etc. and also those from various fields including sociology and philosophy, etc. to give artists in residence advice and engage them in discussion regarding their work, produce criticism and in the long-term lead the artists to discourses on contemporary art and to the art market.
Begun in the form of a visiting expert program in its trial run in 2011, in 2012 we expanded to publishing online the theories regarding artists or artworks produced in this program. We also began offering two artists in residence selected through a jury process the opportunity to be critiqued by a reputable critic working in the contemporary art field in New York, in collaboration with the International Studio & Cruatorial Program(ISCP), Residency Unlimited(RU), a well-known artis residency in New York. The critique thus produced is simultaneously published on the official web sites of the partner institution and Seoul Art Space_Geumcheon.
Meanwhile, there exists and trend toward greater opportunities for artists in residence to be introduced to and hold exhibitions in the international art community through the curator residency program of Seoul Art Space_Geumcheon, which was inaugurated in 2012.
