Seoul Indoor Media Art Exhibition 'Theater of Light'
Many people are looking for indoor exhibitions and attractions during the hot summer and rainy season. I visited an immersive media art exhibition currently being held in Seoul.
🗓️ ~11/24
⏰ 10:00~19:10
📍 177 Walkerhill-ro, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul, Walkerhill Hotel B1 Floor
The Theater of Light is an immersive media art exhibition where you can view various works by 17th-century Dutch masters from different angles in a 1,500-pyeong space.
The Grand Walkerhill Hotel, once a cultural hub frequented by many, has now been reborn as a venue for immersive art exhibitions.
The immersive media art exhibition is characterized by the ability to freely move around a large space while enjoying three-dimensional changing artworks accompanied by grand music.
You can view works by various 17th-century Dutch artists, providing an opportunity to reflect on the culture, society, and atmosphere of that era.
The works of 17th-century Netherlands often feature women as the main subjects, such as the Girl with a Pearl Earring, and the portraits tend to have a somewhat heavy atmosphere.
In addition, there are many grand and splendid works, making it feel like you have indirectly experienced 17th-century Netherlands.
The exhibition runs for about 55 minutes, consisting of a main video of about 35 minutes and an exhibition by architect Mondrian for about 15 minutes.
The Theater of Light has a spacious area with seats, bean bags, and spaces where you can lie down, allowing for a comfortable viewing experience.
The Grand Walkerhill Hotel also operates a free shuttle bus and has separate lockers, making it convenient to move around and enjoy the exhibition with a light heart.
I recommend the 'Theater of Light' at the Grand Walkerhill Hotel to those looking for an indoor exhibition this summer.
