    Artist and Art Professor BG Muhn visited Pyongyang, North Korea on a recent research trip. He will talk about his observations of the people on the streets of Pyongyang during the celebration of their National Foundation Day as well as his encounters with schoolchildren, and he will show video clips from a rare interview of a Buddhist monk at the Sungbulsa Temple, an emotionally meaningful site for South Koreans. Muhn will also introduce some North Korean contemporary art, arguably the last existing pieces of Socialist Realism in the world.
