In Praise of Women

Summary

Korean-born, New York City–based educator and performance artist Maria Yoon has been married forty-four times now, and she’s only in her mid-thirties. Getting married— in every state of the union—is her primary focus at present, but not in the way her parents might have anticipated.... With a B.F.A. from Cooper Union, Maria serves as a teaching artist for New York City museums. Since 2001 she has also been working on a multimedia performance series entitled “Maria the Korean Bride” (MTKB).
