The Korean Culture and Arts Committee under the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism is gaining attention with its space support project aimed at fostering visual and multidisciplinary arts. The committee supports art projects by funding private galleries and artist residency villages, expanding the scope to 2 billion won per project. This initiative allows artists to present their work without commercial constraints and promotes artistic philosophy. Successful projects like Sabina Museum's exhibition on 'the power of tears' explore societal themes like loneliness and isolation, while supporting artists in global exhibitions. The committee plans to continue expanding support, strengthening platforms, and enhancing the social value of art in Korea.
