Yeondoo Jung (b. 1969) graduated from the Department of Sculpture at Seoul National University and earned his MFA from Goldsmiths, University of London. He is currently based in Seoul. Jung has focused on media-based practices including photography, video, and installation, in which performance appears directly or indirectly. His work often draws from the routines of contemporary life, paying close attention to unseen narratives and exploring the possibilities that emerge from them. Through encounters, conversations, and collaborations with others, he adopts a relational approach that forms a threshold between art and everyday life, and between the subject and object of art.

He was selected as the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea’s “Artist of the Year” in 2007. His major solo exhibitions include: National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea (2023); Ulsan Art Museum (2022); Norton Museum of Art, West Palm Beach, USA (2017); Art Sonje Center (2017); MAC VAL, Vitry-sur-Seine, France (2015); Art Tower Mito, Japan (2014); Platoon Kunsthalle, Seoul (2014); K11 Art Space, Shanghai (2013); and PERFORMA 09, New York, USA (2009). He has also taken part in the Gangneung International Art Festival (2025), the 30th Anniversary Exhibition of the Korean Pavilion at the 60th Venice Biennale (2024), the Gwangju Biennale (2021), and the Venice Architecture Biennale (2016).

His works are held in the collections of the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea; Leeum Museum of Art; Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo; Museum of Modern Art, New York; Seattle Art Museum; and MAC VAL.
