The artist intervenes in one of the few uncensored spaces where questions can be asked and the thinking mind provoked.” - William M Boot

距離首爾約 40 分鐘車程接近北韓的的坡州書城占地約 150多公頃,是一個出版業的工業城區,從市中心的市政府大樓乘1000號巴士到文化村轉乘200巴士便可到達。書城包括了整合出版業的生產供應鏈,由韓國著名的黃基望教授和建築師承孝相共同規劃,但各自出版社和商戶的建築又有不同型態的設計風格。整個書城就像一塊建築師的自由畫布,大小不同丶形格各異的建築物分佈其中。
