"This purpose-built museum is dedicated to Korea’s most renowned 20th-century artist, Kim Whanki, whose work appears in the collections of the Pompidou in Paris and the Guggenheim in New York – two cities he called home. Heralded as an early proponent of abstract art, Kim first rose to global prominence at the São Paulo Biennale in 1963. This prompted his move to New York, where he produced the dot paintings that made him the most sought-after Korean artist at auction to this day."

One of my favourite museums in Seoul. Unfortunately it's closed for a while due to renovations.

A beautiful, charming museum dedicated to korean abstract artist Kim Whanki. You may need to take a taxi there as it s located on a quiet hill, past the Blue House. But the journey is worth it, as the exhibitions are of top quality. I learnt so much about the artist s life and creative process. For international visitors, qr codes are available with caption info in english. Do note that photography of the exhibitions are not allowed, except for designated zones.
