Hyung Koo Kang: The Burning Gaze documents and charts the artist's highly regarded practice, which spans more than two decades. An interview with the artist reveals his motivations and intentions, while two essays closely analyse the unconventional techniques that go into his paintings. Over 30 paintings are featured, including new works that have never been shown before, along with caricature sketches and clay sculptures that the artist used to master the art of portraiture.
