Summary
To celebrate the inauguration of MMCA Seoul, MMCA presents five special exhibitions that anticipate the vision and direction of the new museum. Introducing artworks by approximately 120 artists in seven disciplines, the inauguration of MMCA Seoul constitutes Connecting_Unfolding, an exhibition coordinated through international networks that aims to advance into the heart of Korean art and into the hub of the international art scene; The Aleph Project, which symbolizes the future of MMCA Seoul as a platform for communication and a fusion of diverse genres of contemporary art; Zeitgeist Korea, an exhibition interpreting and depicting the potential of Korean contemporary art within a historical context; Site-specific Art Project (Do Ho Suh, U-Ram Choe, and YOUNG-HAE CHANG HEAVY INDUSTRIES), which presents customized, large-scale site-specific installation works that fully utilize the museum's spaces; and Birth of a Museum (Suntag Noh, Seung Woo Back, and Yangachi), a diverse and holistic photographic documentation of MMCA Seoul's construction process.
