Kukje Gallery

A phenomenal gallery experience that is really a mini art town. Made up of atleast 5’/7 buildings and many galleries the spaces are architecturally beautiful and very practical for showing art. The buildings range from old Korean architecture from the ancient times to a few regular galleries to one created by architect Florian Isenberg, a renowned architect. The visit is worth it for the architecture but there is so so much more. The shows are always amazing and right now there is a South Korean woman who works with North Korean artisans to complete works through middlemen and the whole show brings back memories of the war and what it could have been like for all those forgotten people in North Korea. We ended the tour with lunch at their restaurant which was superb. The experience is a must do in Seoul.

A cool modern gallery. Definitely stop by when you are around the area.

The lady at the desk seemed bothered by me being there. No greeting just said it’s free and dismissed me. No explanation of the exhibition. It was empty with no one inside they were busy on their phone. Beautiful space terrible service. Didn’t feel welcomed.

We came during the preparation for their next show. The space is huge. Namjoon sends us here. But wish there was a show at the time, it’s really easy to find, just next to the palace, and along the street you can find other galleries too. I think better to check the Gallery’s website for shows. There’s also another space outside the building for art show- and the same alley there’s also a small hidden cafe.

Went during Anish Kapoor's solo exhibition. Place was okay, the exhibition was divided into 3 buildings and you had to go inside and outside to see all the exhibition pieces, which I think adds to the experience.

Great gallery split across a few buildings. Interestingly, one of the buildings is wrapped in a kind of metal mesh. It’s free to go in and they have bathroom facilities too. The bookshop and ‘Hanok’ space is a excellent also

Great experience! Free entrance with 3 different exhibition areas where you need to walk a little bit but the scene on the way is truly beautiful! Really love it!

I was independently followed around by gallery staff, back and forth between rooms, despite several other visitors being present. Strange and uncomfortable experience.
