Abstract

Focusing on the artwork by Korean-born artist Shin il Kim, this chapter examines Korean contemporary art as a resource for teaching and learning in the American secondary art classroom. Kim utilizes digital technology in his artistic practices, and this chapter explores the possibilities of using his artwork to educate students in America today who are surrounded by digitally based visual culture in their everyday lives. This curricular approach incorporates Kim’s artworks, concepts, and ideas into art instruction for school students in grades 9–12.
