Hyunjin Kim, KADIST’s former Lead Curator for Asia (2017-2020), will discuss Frequencies of Tradition, the culmination of an eponymous series of exhibitions and programs initiated by KADIST in 2018. Adapted from its large-scale iterations at the Guangdong Times Museum, Guangzhou, China (2019-2020), and Incheon Art Platform (2021-2022), Frequencies of Tradition at KADIST San Francisco (on view April 1 to July 16, 2022) centers on an understanding of tradition as a space of contestation, where critical reflection on modernization in East Asia and an expansion of our understanding of the regional modern takes place.
