Anyang Public Art Project is initiated with a premise of art, urban planning and culture, based upon which it carries out its mission to infuse the local community with vitality and provide the citizens with more creative environment. APAP is composed mostly of permanent artworks and some of temporary artworks. Also this project is different from other outdoor sculpture projects that have been detached from local communities by their lack of contextual relevances. The ultimate goal of APAP is to try out interaction with the local community through art, and to expand the notion of 'public art' in a broader context so that it can widely reflect the local culture, imbues its natural environment with a particular identity of the region. APAP, going beyond a superficial gentrification of an urban space, attempts to discover new perspectives in the local community by encouraging the community's active participation and interest in the project.
This APAP2007 is co-curated by Sung Won Kim(artistic director of APAP2007) and Franck Gautherot, Seungduk Kim(Le Consortium). This project intends to rediscover the urban context of 'the City of Anyang' through contemporary arts and create the urban identity based on such key words;
Appropriate, Regenerate, Transform.
APAP2007 is willing to 'appropriate' the urban environment in the context of contemporary art and increase the possibilities for the local citizens to engage their urban lives with a public art project. This artistic appropriation is going to 'regenerate' the urban everyday life and its milieu through various artistic interventions, which is going to make the urban context of the city of Anyang 'transformed' into the new city with rich narratives.City of Anyang
Anyang located about 25km from the south of Seoul, is traditionally the satellite city of Seoul. Anyang is generally divided into two sections :One is an older downtown section centered at Anyang Station, that is, a big shopping area with outdoor markets and the other is new town area, that can be said to be the wealthier, more upscaled and city-planned area. Strategically located, Anyang is convenient transportation hub between Seoul and other major cities across the country.
Like most towns and cities in Seoul Korea, Anyang has experience tremendous urban growth during the post few decades. Ten years after the Korean War ended, the landscape of the city was still rural and its large population depended on agricultural industry. But since the Korean government carried out the national wide project for the industrialization, Anyang has been developed as one of major industrial spots around Seoul. Recently it has also been one of the satellite cities of Seoul because of easy access to transports and the beautiful mountains and scenery that surround Anyang.
Today, Anyang intends to vary the local economy and change the image of the city into 'art city' in order to raise the quality of residential environment and the city amenity. The meaning of 'Anyang' signifies, in a Buddhist term, a heavenly land where unimaginable joy and freedom overflow.

Le catalogue du festival coréen d'art contemporain et d'architecture, organisé par Sung Won Kim et le Consortium en 2007, présentant les œuvres réalisées par une cinquantaine d'artistes internationaux et installées dans les espaces publics de Anyang, située à 50 km de Séoul (apap.anyang.go.kr).
Ce projet a transformé la ville en gigantesque laboratoire artistique à ciel ouvert pendant un mois, mais a également profondément modifié son identité (selon les mots d'ordre qui ont servi de thèmes à l'édition 2007, Appropriate, Regenerate et Transform) : 36 des 46 installations commandées sont devenues permanentes.
Les vues des œuvres in situ sont reproduites en pleine page dans le catalogue, et sont accompagnées d'une biographie de chaque artiste et de trois essais.
