For over four decades, South Korean-born U.S. artist Nam June Paik pushed at the boundaries of artistic convention with works that, most famously, embraced the medium of video.
In doing so, he became a leading light of the Fluxus movement -- which sought to fuse art with music, literature and other media -- and perhaps the most famous artist South Korea has ever produced.
A permanent home
Today his work has a permanent home in the land of his birth: the Nam June Paik Art Center, located in Yongin, a city in Gyeonggi Province, just south of Seoul. CNNGo TV hooked up with director Benson Lee for a tour around Nam June Paik Art Center.
