From Monet to Picasso: MMCA Gwacheon transforms into 19th-century Paris
Setting foot in the gray-walled circular gallery nestled in Gwacheon, Gyeonggi Province, is like traveling back in time to 19th-century Paris in the Belle Epoque.

Nam June Paik's video tower returns after 3-year restoration
Ahead of the 1986 Asian Games and the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, the Korean government was in the process of constructing the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea's (MMCA) new branch in Gwacheon, Gyeonggi Province.

From 'Oceans' to 'Alone,' Korean musicals become more diverse

For Yoon Ju Ellie Lee, 33, an LA-based curator and the executive director of the art nonprofit organization, Equitable Vitrines, the fall of 2016 following the U.S. presidential election was a time spent drowned in feelings of malaise, concern and fear.
