Namdo Folk Food Exhibition Room & Honam Cultural Material Pavilion (남도향토음식박물관·호남문화자료전시관)

💡 Overview

Located in Gwangju, the Namdo Folk Food Exhibition Room was established to preserve and promote the local foods of the Namdo region. The museum has a museum shop, both permanent exhibitions and special planned exhibitions, and a studio where visitors can watch a variety of video content related to the local foods. In the Honam Cultural Material Pavilion, literature, clothing, and artwork from the region are on display.

The museum building was designed to resemble both the long, rectangular presses used to make patterned rice cakes and the Ipseokdae Rock of Mudeungsan Mountain, a symbol of Gwangju. Even the colors of the building’s walls hold special significance. The obangsaek (five colors; blue, white, red, black, and yellow) symbolize the cardinal directions, the seasons, the major organs in the body, different tastes, feelings, and philosophy.

    Gwangju Biennale Exhibition Hall (광주비엔날레전시관)

    💡 Overview

    Since its establishment in 1994, the Gwangju Biennale Exhibition Hall has significantly contributed to Korea’s art culture and the world through numerous exhibitions. It strives to give joy and motivation to many people and serves as a channel for Korean artists’ forays into the world. Notably, the Biennale exhibition is not a one-time event, and various attempts are being made to make it a sustainable platform as it increases the regional value of Gwangju, the home of the Biennale.
