Why go

Total Museum of Contemporary Art in Seoul's Pyeongchang-dong is a private contemporary art museum founded in 1976, making it one of Korea's oldest continuously operating contemporary art museums. The museum runs about 6 exhibitions per year focused on contemporary Korean and international art, with a particular curatorial bias toward sculpture and large-scale installation work. The substantial main exhibition space allows ambitious large-scale productions, and the surrounding Pyeongchang-dong area — affluent and gallery-dense — gives the visit a natural multi-gallery extension. Bilingual interpretation. Closed Mondays. About 60 minutes. Pair with Gana Art Center and other Pyeongchang-dong galleries.
