Hwasun-gun Opens 'Donor Special Exhibition' at Cheonsagwan

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Young-gyun] Hwasun-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Gu Chung-gon) announced on the 3rd that the first exhibition of the new year, "Photo Culture Center Donor Special Exhibition," opened on the 2nd at the Cheonbul Cheontap Photo Culture Center (hereafter Cheonsagwan).

This special exhibition will be held until April 5.

The special exhibition was made possible by the interest and donations of photographers who donated photographic works and cameras to Cheonsagwan.

Since Cheonsagwan opened in April 2017, donations of cameras, related books, and photographic works have continued, and among them, a total of 100 items, including 50 selected photographic works and 50 cameras, are showcased in the special exhibition.

The artists who donated works, Kim Han-yong, Oh Sang-jo, and Yoon Yong-dae, were pioneers of the early South Korean photography scene, spanning black and white and color, as well as analog and digital eras.

The works of the late Kim Han-yong, who led the advertising photography industry in Korea; Oh Sang-jo, who devoted half his life to nurturing future generations by establishing the first photography department at a university in the Gwangju and Jeonnam region; and Yoon Yong-dae, who quietly built his own photographic world, are deeply moving.

Cheonsagwan is closed every Monday, and admission is free.
