The works of Lee Ufan (이우환) focus on the space between subjects. In his art the negative is not blank; it has power, tremendous power.
GMA first opened its doors on August 1, 1992, and since that day, it has made a special purpose of preserving what Gwangju stands for. Every exhibition that comes through the museum places special emphasis on the theme of social justice. The curators at GMA work to bring socially conscious art work to the museum to reflect the themes that Gwangju is known for: art and human rights.
