Korea: Then and Now Opening Night

Wednesday 21 May, 5:30-7:30pm
Korean Cultural Office Gallery, Australia
 
About 120 years ago, Australian missionaries landed in Korea. During their stay, they experienced its culture and left behind photo journals representing honest portrayals of their impressions of Korea. The photographs depicted the now long-gone everyday life of the country and also the harmonised interaction between the locals and the visitors.

'Korea Then & Now' will introduce you to a recent history (1890s – 1950s) of Korea in the form of pictured memories of the first Australian visitors in Korea. In addition, the current scenes of the city and its everyday life can be observed through the pictures from Korean photographers of today.
 
This exhibition is made possible through the support of the Christian Review and the Photo Artists Society of Korea in Sydney.
