Are you looking to incorporate Korean visual culture into your teaching and research? This FREE workshop is your chance to explore rarely shown items from the Seattle Art Museum’s collection. Participants will be able to view a variety of objects and materials that are currently not on view in the galleries, including Korean folding screens, ceramics, sculpture, gold items, and bronze mirrors, dating from the Three Kingdoms to Chosŏn periods. It will be a chance to exchange perspectives, gain insights, and maybe even spark new ideas for your teaching and research in a stimulating and informal setting. The workshop will be led by Maya Stiller, currently Chair of the Committee on Korean Studies and Associate Professor of Korean Art & Visual Culture at the University of Kansas.
