Inteview with the Winner of the Korea Artists Prize 2018: Siren Eun Young Jung
On the occasion of the Korean Artist Prize award ceremony co-organised by the SBS Foundation and the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea (MMCA, Korea), we interviewed the winner of the 2018 edition, artist Siren Eun Young Jung who will be also one of the protagonists of the Korean Pavilion at the 58th Venice Art Biennale. Siren Eun Young Jung (Incheon, 1974) is known for her art projects that are based on her own studies, researches, and analyses of traditional Korean female theatre called “yeoseong gukgeuk”, a genre of performing art that was popular in the 1950s but has been forgotten without ever being established as either a traditional or modern form of Korean theatre.
