 |
|
Where can I go to get good artwork--either a reproduction of a famous painting or something original? It can be paint on canvas, a photo, or even a poster--I'm not picky.
Preferably, I'd like something abstract with a lot of red in it on a plain white border and a thin, black plastic canvas. Any recommendations for a good piece are welcome, too.
Thank you, lovely aficionados of Dave-land!  |

The most art I've seen for sale has been in areas that get a lot of tourists. Itaewon and Insadong both have a few art shops. You'll find a variety of price ranges... 10,000 won to.... well, it can go up a lot.
Most of what you'll find will be paintings of "traditional" scenes in Korea. I'm not sure about abstract.
Let us know what you do find. |

I do know of one place--in the ground floor of Yongsan station below the electronics market there is a small gallery, but their stuff is very girly. |
