Korean Artist Project (KAP), which comprises three-year plan spanning
from 2011 to 2013, is a global online platform that presents a series of
virtual exhibitions featuring artworks by Korean contemporary artists
to internationally promote them, allowing them to enter into the global
art arena.

approximately more than 1500 artworks with a wide variety of genres
including painting, sculpture, drawing, installation, and photography as
well as video and digital art.
A total of 42 participating artists
were selected by a number of curators from 19 Korean art museums and
then juried by Korean and international art critics. For more info,
