AB - This paper purposes to examine the activities for representing the interests of artists which was organized by the Solidarity of Culture and Art Workers(SCAW) through analyzing the interviews with artists, statistics collected by the government and documents produced by the SCAW. By interviewing with general artists, I looked at the ways in which artists understand the fact that they should be recognized as workers because the SCAW tried to conceptualize “artwork” or “art as labor” in order to achieve their organizational goal. By examining various documents, I found that the SCAW switched their organizational strategies from building the concept of “artwork” which was somewhat vague as organizational strategies to enacting “Employment Insurance for Artists” which was more easy for general artists to accept as a goal of organizational activities. In fact, the SCAW made artists rethink their identities as “art workers” through adopting a strategy to enact “Employment Insurance for Artists” because only employed workers could benefit from the employment insurance according to the Korean labor policies. In this process, artists came to claim to be workers who were illegible for the employment insurance. The SCAW made an effort to produce an proper plan of employment insurance for artists and it’s changed strategy seemed successful.
