Description:'The 2nd Kwangju Biennale is being held under the theme, "Unmapping the Earth."With the widespread support and appreciation for the arts generated by the first event, we expect to build upon the previous achievement, always seeking to successfully improve the calibre of each Biennale. The core of the '97 Kwangju Biennale is its Main Exhibition, which enjoys the participation of world-renowned artists selected by a distinguished group of commissioners. The Main Exhibition provides an opportunity to experience current trends in the international art world, helping to foster a better understanding of contemporary art in the public. I hope the catalogue for the Main Exhibition of the 2nd Kwangju Biennale, introducing the participating artists and their works, will serve as a valuable guide for visitors, and lend insight to some of the ideas and issues explored by the artists.' - Song Eon-jong, Mayor of the City of Kwangju, Chairman of the Kwangju Biennale. This catalogue includes artists' biographies.
