Sehwa Museum in Jongno, Seoul reopened with two curated shows: "Silhouettes of Memory" featuring works by Seo Seong-hyeop, Im Su-sik and Kim Bo-min that reframe rapidly produced digital memories through sensory, analog techniques (e.g., Kim’s painting "Gaehwa" mixes traditional East Asian painting techniques with past and present cityscapes), and a second-floor interactive gallery where visitors can physically move pieces or listen to sound works. The shows run through June 28. At Seoul National University Museum of Art in Gwanak, a 20th-anniversary exhibition "Inside and Out" presents archival material on the museum’s founding and architect Rem Koolhaas’s design concepts, along with 120 selected works from the museum’s 1,034-piece collection. Both exhibitions are on view until June 28.
