This review is from: Arts of Korea (Hardcover)
Arts of Korea is a large (500 pp) catalogue from the Metropolitan Museum's inaugural exhibit (1998) of Korean art. The first half of the catalogue is dedicated to 100 artifacts in the exhibits, and the second half of the catalogue is dedicated to scholarly essays. In the first half, the objects are shown in large color photographs with basic museum-label type information. In the second half, essays by senior scholars of Korean art are illustrated by poor-quality (small, black-and-white) photographs.

If I were the average museum-goer, I wouldn't necessarily buy this book, since the first half doesn't have enough info (for the average person) and the second half has too much info (again, for the average person). On the other hand, there is a lot of knowledge in this volume that will be welcome to serious fans of Korean art.
