Freelance art writer (often for the New York Times) and past guest royalty Andrew Russeth talks about:

Why he moved to Seoul, South Korea, where he's expanded his freelance writing opportunities; a book on Chris Burden's unrealized sculpture projects, which he wrote about for the New York Times- the book includes a one-stop pneumatic subway under the Gagosian gallery; artists using assistants, and the optics that go along with the various levels of production that certain artists employ, for us as viewers of their work; the art scene(s) and community in greater Seoul, which has a metropolitan population of 25 million, nearly half that of the whole country of South Korea; the vast artist-run gallery scene in Seoul; how some of the trends in Korean contemporary art overlap with international contemporary art, including airbrushed figuration, humor, and meme culture; and last but not least, Andrew holds forth on South Korea's incredible food and drink culture (including Bibimbap and soju), which has been heaven for him.
