Since 2008, the KCCUK has been dedicated to promoting friendship and understanding between Korea and the UK through various programmes of cultural activities and events enveloping art, dance, music, design, food, literature and film. With its gallery based just off London’s Trafalgar Square, the visual arts department at the KCCUK introduces some of the most exciting contemporary Korean artists through exhibitions and associated projects. In recent years, the KCCUK has worked in an increasingly collaborative way on various exhibitions, events and artist residencies with major UK institutions including Art Night, FRIEZE, the ICA, Liverpool Biennial, Hayward Gallery, Serpentine Galleries, Spike Island, Somerset House and the V&A to name but a few.
