[Asia Economy Reporter Kwak Minjae] Samhwa Paint Industrial announced on the 8th that it will participate as an official sponsor in the '2022 Art Prize Gangnam,' the first street art competition in Korea.

Hosted by Gangnam-gu, Seoul, the 2022 Art Prize Gangnam is an art competition and exhibition event held to revitalize the Nonhyeon-dong furniture street and promote cultural and artistic enjoyment for citizens. It will take place at Nonhyeon-dong furniture street until the 13th.

Samhwa Paint sponsored this event to revitalize the local commercial district, which has been stagnant due to COVID-19, and to provide emerging artists with opportunities for exhibition and growth. In particular, the 'Art X Street Gallery' will showcase artworks painted by past award-winning artists using Samhwa Paint's eco-friendly paint, 'iLux.' A hands-on zone where visitors can experience painting will also be operated.

A representative from Samhwa Paint said, "We hope that supporting the cultural and artistic fields will provide a good opportunity for emerging artists to grow," and added, "We plan to continue various social contribution activities, such as improving public environments and crime prevention design, so that citizens can live safely and comfortably."
