Artists in the Gokseong area had not considered forming an artists association due to the lack of exhibition spaces in the region.

However, when Gokseong-gun established Gallery 107 on Jungang-ro in May of last year, local artists began to unite, which led to the founding of the association.

The artists belonging to the Gokseong Artists Association are active in various genres.

All members participated in the inaugural exhibition, including Kang Seong (woodcraft), Ko Jeong-ae (Western painting), Kim Mal-rye (natural dyeing), Kim Seong-beom (sculpture), Kim Hae-ran (Western painting), Park Hee-seok (Korean painting), Seo Hyun-ho (Western painting), Im Won-ja (Western painting), Ahn Tae-jung (wood carving), Jo Il-bok (ceramics), and Jang Yun-bong (ceramics).

Artist Im Won-ja expressed, “Although we are starting on a small scale, local artists will use the inaugural exhibition as a starting point to exchange works, foster friendship, and contribute to the development of art in Gokseong.”
