$120,000 banana, praying Hitler: Infamous art world prankster Maurizio Cattelan's first Seoul outing
A ripe banana with a price tag of $120,000 duct-taped to a wall. That was enough to make the art world go bananas in December 2019, when the “ephemeral sculpture” proudly made its appearance at Art Basel Miami Beach.

Renaissance aesthetics meets surreal fantasy in Park Min-joon's oil paintings
Artist Park Min-joon brings to life surreal scenes teeming with blind tightrope walkers, masked clowns and a wooden puppet-turned-boy through an unlikely medium - oil paintings reminiscent of striking 15th-century Renaissance art.

At the center of the canvas lies a scene of an intimate encounter between two lovers suggestively captured in a Japanese illustrated hand scroll. But instead of providing the full visual context of the dalliance, Chinese artist Ziping Wang has chosen to interrupt the scene with a barrage of vibrant yet entirely irrelevant images: a pixelated chicken drumstick, dispersed fragm...
