Trip to Seoul Museum of Art


SeMA showcases variety of special exhibitions with Korean artists and international exhibitions that show the trend of art outside the country and also expanding the base of art culture through the "Communication through Art" projects. 


When I went there, they're featuring Stanley Kubrick's life works. Stanley Kubrick is one of the most influential directors in film history, famous for his innovative cinematography. 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), now regarded as a benchmark for special effects, shows strikingly realistic visuals, so much so that it is hard to believe that the film was produced before the first moon landing. With ceaseless experimentation, challenges, and ground-breaking ideas, Kubrick produced films like A Clockwork Orange (1971), Barry Lyndon (1975), The Shining (1980), Full Metal Jacket (1987), and Eyes Wide Shut (1999) that remain as crucial films in cinema history. 


This place is heaven for instagram millennials!


I honestly have no idea about the films featured in this exhibit. 


But I enjoyed seeing some stuff like the Oscar's trophy and other movie props.


Well, some of the things there are really provocative and some are creepy!


How to go there:
Take a subway to City Hall Station (Exit 10)
and follow the road signs. :)

Admission:
Fees are depending on the exhibits. When I went there, the ticket costs 13,000 won.
