According to the county on the 24th, this exhibition features paintings capturing the beautiful nature such as Gochang Eupseong Fortress, barley fields, and Seonunsan flower cluster amaryllis, giving visitors a refreshing feeling as if they are out in a vast meadow.

On one side, vigorous brushstrokes, the gradation of ink, and the beauty of empty space harmonize in calligraphy works, providing a healing experience.

Entering as if invited and appreciating the artworks, art becomes a familiar part of everyday life rather than a difficult subject to approach.

The corridor of the government building has been transformed into a gallery, evoking a refined art museum atmosphere with a much softer ambiance.

The county decorated the corridor with new lighting installations for the exhibition, making it comparable to any art museum.

Additionally, by inviting a curator from the Gwangju Cultural Foundation to consult on the overall spatial composition, the level of sophistication was elevated one step further.

The county plans to periodically change the exhibited works to display various artworks and will promote planned exhibitions if local art groups and artists wish to exhibit.

County Governor Shim Deok-seop said, “I am pleased to introduce high-quality works by local artists to the residents,” and added, “We will continue to strive to present diverse and excellent works to the local community.”
