The Art of Kimchi—with Kate Hers in Berlin

When we record with Kate Hers, a Korean-born artist based in Berlin, in 2011, she describes the German art scene and explains how she raised funds through Kickstarter for her project Dr. Rhee's Kimtschi Shop. The artist and her partner, physicist Hanjo Rhee, will trade their special version of Korea’s national treasure for cultural artifacts from local customers from November 19 to 25, 2011, in the space known as Das Gift, in Berlin.
