At the Seoul Forum 2025, Joy Car, Director of the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art, discussed the museum's relocation project inspired by Bilbao's Guggenheim Museum success. This initiative aims to revitalize Memphis, linking the museum with the Mississippi River, enhancing transparency, and boosting economic impact. The approach draws parallels to Spain's Bilbao, which transformed from an industrial city to a cultural hub thanks to its museum. Such transformative potential was echoed by Korean art institutions, highlighting the cultural evolutions in Gwangju and Busan.
