Special Storage: National Museum of Contemporary Art Drawings and Contemporary Japanese Prints
특별수장고: 국립현대미술관 드로잉·일본 현대 판화 소장품
This open storage gallery at the National Museum of Contemporary Art, Cheongju offers unprecedented access to major drawings in the collection, including works by Yi In-seong, Park Su-geun, and Yoo Young-kuk, revealing the creative processes and formal experimentations of Korean masters. Simultaneously, the exhibition showcases contemporary Japanese prints from the 1970s-1980s, a period of intense experimentation when printmaking transcended mere reproduction to become an independent creative medium. These Japanese works demonstrate the influence of pop art, conceptual art, and innovative techniques that transformed printmaking into contemporary art. Weekday access by appointment, limited to 10 visitors per hour from 2 PM to 6 PM.
