VENICE, Italy — Two female Korean artists who rebel against conventional thoughts through art, traveled to Italy to showcase their works at the 59th Venice Biennale.
“The Milk of Dreams,” which is the name of the 59th International Art Exhibition, features 34-year-old Mire Lee, who is based in Seoul and Amsterdam, and 42-year-old Geumhyung Jeong, based in Seoul, among 213 artists from all over the world.
