WHY VISIT
The curated exhibition 《80 Urban Reality》 in the GanaArt Collection at the Seoul Museum of Art explores the realities surrounding cities in the 1980s from various perspectives through the collection and artworks. The 1980s in Korean society marked a significant era of rapid industrialization and economic growth, ushering in a new phase of urbanization. During that time, artists had their own attitudes towards cities and created various artworks reflecting their perspectives. This exhibition is organized into three sub-themes: ‘The Other Side of Urbanization,' 'Urbanites,' and 'Beyond Urban Surroundings: Origin of Life,' based on a common thematic consciousness that runs through the exhibited works. Through the artists' perspectives from that era, we hope this exhibition provides an opportunity to empathize with the realities of that time and contemplate their significance in our present lives.
