The exhibition "Impressionism, from Monet to America: Light, Across the Ocean" will be held at ALT.1 in Hyundai Seoul from February 15 to May 26. Water Lilies by Claude Monet, a painter loved by Koreans, is coming to Korea. Monet is an artist who captured the fleeting beauty created by light on canvas.

Despite the global art market recession, Water Lilies was sold at Sotheby's in New York for $65.5 million two months ago. Last year, on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the birth of Impressionism, major museums such as the Musée d'Orsay in France held Impressionist exhibitions and borrowed paintings, resulting in no chance for Impressionism to enter Korea. For this reason, the special exhibition that will open next month is expected by people inside and outside the art world as a heavyweight masterpiece exhibition of all ages to kick off the new year. The bridge of European and American Impressionism, Worcester masterpieces gather in one place The Korea Economic Daily, which has been making waves in the art world since the end of the year with the exhibition "Vienna 1900, Dream Artists", jointly held this exhibition with the Worcester Art Museum in the United States to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Vienna 1900.

Alfred These are works by American Impressionist painters such as Sisley. This is because Impressionism, which originated in Europe, crossed the Atlantic and blossomed after encountering American nature, becoming the starting point of modern painting. Art lovers have high hopes for the exhibition commemorating the 150th anniversary of the birth of Impressionism.

Mueck is renowned for his surrealist sculptures that raise fundamental questions about human existence, life and death.

The exhibition’s signature work, Mass, consists of giant human skulls that resemble a tower of death, and asks one to ponder the fundamental concepts of human existence both physically and mentally. The title alone gives one a sense of the ambiguity of the work. The word “mass” can refer to both a large amount and a huge amount, and each viewer has a different interpretation. In addition to this work, you can also see Ron Mueck’s signature work Woman, which depicts a pregnant woman. In addition, the exhibition will feature photographs and documentaries shot by Gautier de Blonde that document the creative process of Ron Mueck’s works. Through this, viewers will be able to gain a deeper understanding of the world of Ron Mueck’s work and get a glimpse into his artistic inspirations and philosophy.

One third of the Earth's surface. A larger ocean than all land combined. That's the Pacific Ocean. In this vast ocean, humans set sail, found islands, and established their roots. The art, culture, and material culture created by humans on the countless islands scattered across the Pacific Ocean are collectively called 'Oceania'. The world created by people who sailed between islands, following the stars, winds, and ocean currents, unfolds unique stories of art and philosophy. The special exhibition 'Mana Moana - Art of the Sacred Sea, Oceania' is an exhibition jointly planned by the National Museum of Korea and the Musée du Quai Branly-Jacques Chirac in France, and introduces traditional and contemporary art from Oceania from the 18th century to the present. You can see exhibits that vividly convey the lives and philosophies of Oceania people, from canoes and sculptures, masks and musical instruments, stone statues and ornaments, to textiles. In Polynesian, ‘mana’ means the sacred power that resides in all beings, and ‘moana’ means the vast ocean. For those who have made the sacred ocean their foundation for life and a space of connection, ‘mana’ is the source of the heart that respects life, nature, and ancestors, and the power that moves the world. This worldview of mana conveys a deep realization that sees all beings, including nature, not as mere objects of use, but as companions of coexistence. Now, we would like to meet the various cultures that humans have created on this island called Earth. We hope that you will have a time filled with empathy and lingering emotions with ‘mana moana’.

The Seoul National University Museum of Art (Director Shim Sang-yong) will hold the “Weapon World” exhibition from February 6 (Thursday) to May 4 (Sunday), 2025, showcasing the power of art that contrasts with weapons through approximately 120 works by domestic and foreign artists. This exhibition reflects on our present through weapons that embody the cutting-edge technology of modern society, and highlights artworks that explore the form and purpose of weapons. The concept of arms tax involves the broad impact of military activities such as weapons production, technology development, defense industry and war, as well as the complex military-industrial complex surrounding these activities, on the global environment and the future of mankind. If the "Anthropocene" explores the geological impact of human activities on the earth's ecosystem, and the "Capitalistocene" explains the impact of the expansion of the capitalist system on society and nature, then the "arms tax" is to recognize and warn of the dangers of militaristic civilization based on these concepts. To help people get to know the exhibition, we will be hosting curator-led tours of the exhibition on the last Wednesday of each month, “Culture Day”. Curator-led tours of the exhibition are scheduled for Wednesday, February 26, Wednesday, March 26, and Wednesday, April 24 from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m.
