Special Exhibition Commemorating 30 Years of Doam Kim Yong-du's Donations: "My Personal Museum"
두암 김용두 기증 30년 기념 특별전 <나의 인생 박물관>
Since 1997, collector Doam Kim Yong-du, a Korean resident in Japan, has made significant donations to the National Museum of Jinju, establishing a remarkable partnership spanning three decades. This exhibition examines how private collections transform into public cultural heritage through the gift-giving process, while celebrating the formation and public value of this distinguished collection. Featured works, including a 16th-century eight-panel screen depicting "Xiaoxiang Night Rain," demonstrate the enduring significance of these cultural contributions.
